About HWDRX
Hartford World Bond Fund Class R3 is an open‑end mutual fund in the global bond category that seeks capital appreciation with income as a secondary goal. The strategy invests primarily in high‑quality global sovereign debt while opportunistically allocating across other fixed income segments to capture market inefficiencies. The portfolio normally places at least 80% of assets in fixed income securities spanning U.S. and non‑U.S. government and corporate issues, mortgage‑related and asset‑backed securities, loan participations, inflation‑protected bonds, structured instruments, variable and floating‑rate notes, and preferred stock. At least 75% of net assets are invested in investment‑grade bonds, with flexibility to allocate up to 50% to below‑investment‑grade securities, reflecting a balance between quality and selective risk‑taking. The fund is sub‑advised by Wellington, leveraging specialized research across global fixed income markets. Classified in the world bond segment, it plays a role as a diversified core global fixed income allocation, providing exposure to multiple regions, sectors, and interest‑rate regimes while seeking total return through active country, duration, currency, and sector positioning.
