About ASADX
American Century Short Duration Strategic Income Fund Class A is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating current income with a secondary objective of long‑term capital appreciation. The strategy invests across a diversified mix of fixed income sectors, including corporate bonds and notes, U.S. government securities, and securitized debt such as collateralized loan obligations and mortgage‑backed instruments, spanning both investment‑grade and high‑yield segments when appropriate. Emphasizing a short interest‑rate profile, the portfolio targets limited duration to help moderate sensitivity to rate movements relative to longer‑maturity bond funds, aligning it with the short‑term bond category. The fund’s multi‑sector approach allows managers to allocate among credit, securitized, and government exposures to pursue consistent income while managing risk through diversification. It distributes income on a monthly basis, reflecting its income‑oriented mandate. By combining short duration with broad credit and securitized market access, American Century Short Duration Strategic Income Fund Class A aims to serve as a core short‑term fixed income holding for investors seeking stability of principal alongside steady income within a professionally managed framework.
