About JYHIX

John Hancock High Yield Fund Class I is a mutual fund specializing in high-yield fixed-income securities, chiefly targeting bonds rated below investment grade. The fund’s primary objective is to provide a high level of current income, with capital appreciation as a secondary goal. It holds a diversified portfolio, predominantly comprised of U.S. and foreign high-yield corporate bonds, with at least 80% of assets invested in these instruments. This concentrated focus on lower-rated bonds offers higher yield potential but is accompanied by greater credit and economic risk relative to higher-quality fixed-income strategies. Distinctive features of the fund include a broad allocation across various sectors and issuers, limiting exposure to any single holding and enhancing risk dispersion. The fund’s top ten holdings constitute a modest portion of the overall portfolio, emphasizing diversification. Class I shares are intended for institutional or large investors and are designed to minimize expenses compared to other share classes. In the financial market, this fund plays a key role for investors seeking enhanced income generation from their fixed-income allocation, accepting higher volatility in exchange for yield opportunities within the high-yield bond segment.
