About DFTEX
DFA Intermediate-Term Extended Quality Portfolio Institutional Class Shares is an open-end mutual fund that principally invests in U.S. and foreign corporate debt securities with investment-grade credit ratings. This portfolio targets bonds maturing within three to twenty years from settlement, aiming for a balance between yield and interest rate sensitivity, and maintains a portfolio duration generally between three and ten years. The fund’s investments may include securities denominated in foreign currencies, though it typically hedges foreign currency exposure to manage risks associated with exchange rate fluctuations. Managed by Dimensional Fund Advisors, this fund emphasizes broad diversification, with over 500 holdings, and applies strategies such as the use of futures and credit default swaps to hedge against interest rate or credit risks and to potentially enhance returns. The fund is categorized under corporate bonds and is designed to provide investors access to high-quality fixed income with competitive risk-adjusted returns. It maintains a low expense ratio and is suitable for those seeking exposure to investment-grade bonds across various sectors and geographies without taking on significant credit risk. As of its latest reporting, the portfolio holds net assets exceeding $1.8 billion, underlining its scale and market presence.
