About JEDAX

The JPMorgan Emerging Markets Debt Fund Class A is a mutual fund specializing in fixed income securities from issuers in emerging markets. Its principal goal is to achieve a high total return by investing at least 80% of its assets in a diversified mix of sovereign and corporate debt instruments from developing economies, focusing on both government and quasi-government bonds. The fund primarily targets regions such as Latin America, Eastern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, providing exposure to both established and frontier emerging market debt markets. With a broad portfolio typically consisting of several hundred holdings, it emphasizes a mix of credit qualities and maturities, often holding a slight overweight in B-rated bonds and longer maturities compared to peers. The fund plays a significant role in connecting global investors to the growth and income potential of emerging markets while also serving as a vehicle for diversification away from developed market bonds. Managed by a seasoned team under the JPMorgan fund family, it is categorized as having above-average risk and offers monthly income distributions, making it a notable participant in the emerging market fixed income space.
