About HIMZX

Virtus Newfleet Low Duration Core Plus Bond Fund is an actively managed mutual fund focused on short-term fixed income. Its primary objective is to deliver a high level of total return—combining current income with capital appreciation—while limiting net asset value volatility through a low effective duration profile typically in the 1–3 year range. Managed by Newfleet Asset Management, the strategy employs a flexible, multi-sector approach across 14 global bond segments, including U.S. government, investment-grade corporates, securitized credit, and select non-U.S. exposures, using active sector rotation and rigorous risk management to identify relative value opportunities. The portfolio emphasizes higher-quality, more liquid securities and maintains a short weighted average maturity to reduce interest-rate sensitivity. Core characteristics often include an effective duration near two years and diversified holdings spanning hundreds of issues, reflecting a research-driven process and broad risk dispersion. Established in 1999, the fund occupies the short-term bond category and serves as a conservative core fixed income allocation for investors seeking stability of principal with steady income in a multi-sector framework.
