About ASYDX
American Century Short Duration Strategic Income Fund - Y Class is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating income from a diversified mix of short-maturity fixed income securities. The strategy invests across investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds, U.S. government and agency securities, and securitized assets such as mortgage- and asset-backed bonds, with the flexibility to use preferreds and convertibles when consistent with its mandate. The portfolio targets a limited interest-rate sensitivity profile typical of short-term bond funds, aiming to balance yield with lower duration risk relative to intermediate bond strategies. The fund distributes income monthly and has maintained a broad opportunity set, reflected in its hundreds of holdings and use of Treasury futures for duration management. Positioned within the short-term bond category, it seeks to deliver competitive income and risk-adjusted returns versus cash and narrow government-only approaches, while emphasizing diversification across sectors and credit tiers. Institutional Y shares provide access to the same underlying strategy with a lower expense structure relative to retail share classes.
