About HSDRX
Hartford Short Duration Fund Class R3 is an actively managed short‑term bond mutual fund designed to provide current income and long‑term total return through a diversified portfolio with limited interest‑rate sensitivity. The fund targets an effective duration of roughly two years, positioning it to be less volatile than intermediate‑ or long‑duration bond strategies while still offering income potential. It invests primarily in investment‑grade U.S. fixed income, complemented by allocations to sectors such as asset‑backed and mortgage‑backed securities, commercial mortgage‑backed securities, and bank loans, with flexibility to hold a measured share of high‑yield credit. The portfolio is broadly diversified across hundreds of holdings and issuers, with monthly distributions that can appeal to income‑focused investors seeking shorter‑maturity exposure. Within the short‑term bond category, the strategy emphasizes sector diversification and credit selection to enhance total return relative to government‑only benchmarks. Managed by an experienced team, the fund’s role in the market is to serve as a core short‑duration fixed‑income option for investors balancing income needs with controlled interest‑rate risk.
