About HSDAX

Hartford Short Duration Fund Class A is an actively managed open-end mutual fund focused on high-quality, short-term fixed income. Its primary purpose is to provide current income with a secondary goal of long-term total return by investing across investment-grade and select below-investment-grade corporate bonds, securitized assets, and short-maturity government and agency debt. Managed by a Wellington Management portfolio manager with deep experience, the strategy emphasizes limited interest-rate sensitivity through a short effective duration profile, seeking to mitigate volatility from rate moves while maintaining diversified credit exposure. The fund typically holds a broad basket of issuers and securities, distributing income monthly, and references the Bloomberg 1–3 Year US Government/Credit Index for context. Within the short-term bond category, it serves as a core short-duration holding for investors aiming to balance income generation with reduced interest-rate risk relative to intermediate- and long-duration bond funds. Its role in the market is to offer a conservative, liquid fixed-income allocation that can complement cash management needs and help stabilize multi-asset portfolios during periods of rate uncertainty and credit spread fluctuations.
