About JHNBX

John Hancock Bond Fund Class A is an open-end mutual fund focused on providing investors with a high level of current income while maintaining prudent investment risk. The fund primarily invests at least 80% of its net assets in a diversified portfolio of bonds, spanning both government and corporate debt securities. Notably, at least 25% of its assets are allocated to high-yield bonds, including those rated as low as CC/Ca or their unrated equivalents, which introduces exposure to a broad range of credit qualities. The portfolio features significant holdings in U.S. Treasury notes and bonds, reflecting an emphasis on government-backed securities, but it also seeks additional yield through selected positions in riskier credit segments. The fund is categorized as an intermediate core-plus bond fund, which means it maintains medium credit quality and interest rate sensitivity, with an effective duration around six years and a yield in the range of 3.9% to 4.1%. Since its inception in 1973, John Hancock Bond Fund Class A has offered daily declared dividends paid monthly. It is designed for investors looking for diversified fixed-income exposure and consistent income across varying market conditions, playing a stabilizing role within broader investment portfolios.
