About BJBHX
abrdn High Income Opportunities Fund A is a mutual fund in the high-yield bond category, designed to generate income through investments primarily in below-investment-grade corporate debt securities.

Notable features include a focus on credit selection to identify mispriced risks, with holdings such as Rogers Communications, Graphic Packaging International, and TransDigm, supplemented by cash equivalents and ETFs like iShares Broad USD High Yield Corporate Bond ETF. The fund carries a net expense ratio of 0.96% for Class A shares, subject to contractual waivers, and a 0.25% 12b-1 fee, with a maximum front-end sales load of 3%. In the financial markets, it plays a key role for income-oriented investors seeking yields around 7% amid supportive technicals, though it involves elevated risks from lower-rated securities, economic volatility, foreign exposure, and potential defaults.
