About CCSAX
Columbia Commodity Strategy Fund Class A is a diversified mutual fund designed to provide total return by maintaining significant exposure to global commodities markets. The fund achieves this by investing, both directly and indirectly, in a portfolio of commodity-linked instruments such as futures contracts, structured notes, and swaps. Its holdings span a broad spectrum of commodities, including energy, agriculture, industrial and precious metals, and livestock, offering investors wide-ranging sector exposure without direct ownership of physical assets. The fund’s strategy incorporates active management and risk controls, with a notable allocation to cash and equivalents alongside its commodity-linked positions. By providing access to the commodities asset class, Columbia Commodity Strategy Fund Class A plays an important role in portfolio diversification and inflation hedging, serving institutional and individual investors seeking alternative sources of return beyond traditional equity and fixed income markets.
