About ASDHX

American Century Short Duration Strategic Income Fund is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating income with a secondary objective of long-term capital appreciation. It invests across a diversified mix of U.S. fixed-income sectors, including corporate bonds and notes, government securities, mortgage- and asset-backed bonds, and select high-yield and structured credit, while maintaining a short effective duration to reduce interest-rate sensitivity. The strategy targets enhanced yield versus cash and pure government or investment‑grade-only portfolios by blending investment‑grade and below‑investment‑grade exposures and using tactical positioning in shorter-maturity and callable securities. Managed by a multi‑manager team, the fund emphasizes rigorous credit research, security selection, and risk management within the short‑term bond category. The I Class is designed for institutional or intermediary platforms, featuring a relatively low expense profile and a high minimum investment. The fund distributes income monthly and seeks to provide a balanced profile of income and capital preservation through changing market cycles by actively adjusting sector allocation, credit risk, and duration within a 1–3.5‑year range typical of short-term bond strategies.
