The fund’s holdings include a mix of U.S. Treasury securities, agency mortgage-backed securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, and select high-yield and global fixed income instruments. Designed to complement core fixed income allocations, the fund seeks to outperform standard benchmarks like the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index through issuer-specific analysis and agile sector rotation.
