About GSSDX

Goldman Sachs Short Duration Government Fund Class A is an actively managed mutual fund focused on high-quality, short-duration U.S. government securities. Its primary objective is to deliver a high level of current income while maintaining capital stability, achieved by investing predominantly in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, and instrumentalities, as well as repurchase agreements backed by such collateral. The portfolio often includes adjustable-rate mortgage and mortgage-related securities with periodic interest resets, emphasizing limited interest-rate sensitivity relative to longer-duration strategies. The fund maintains broad diversification, holding several hundred positions, and distributes income on a monthly basis. Positioned within the short government category, it serves as a core cash-management and liquidity-oriented fixed income allocation, aiming to dampen volatility across market cycles while providing steady income from government-backed sources. Inception dating back to the late 1990s reflects an established track record within Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s lineup of government and mortgage-focused fixed income strategies.
