About FIPRX

Federated Hermes Inflation Protected Securities Fund R6 is an open-end mutual fund specializing in inflation-indexed fixed-income securities. Its primary objective is to seek current income and real total returns by investing predominantly in investment-grade, inflation-protected bonds issued by the U.S. government and its agencies, as well as select derivatives and other fixed-income assets. A notable characteristic of this fund is its focus on securities that adjust their principal value in response to changes in the Consumer Price Index, thereby helping shield investors’ portfolios from inflation-driven erosion of purchasing power. The fund is managed by Federated Hermes, a recognized name in asset management. The R6 share class targets institutional and retirement plan investors by offering a lower expense ratio—0.75%—and does not impose sales loads. With over half its portfolio concentrated in top U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) positions, the fund plays a significant role as a hedging tool within diversified portfolios, especially during periods of rising inflation or increased interest rate volatility. It offers annual capital gain distributions and a variable yield shaped by real-time inflation trends.
