About LDCFX
Lord Abbett Short Duration Core Bond Fund Class F is an actively managed mutual fund focused on high-quality, short-maturity fixed income. The strategy seeks total return by investing primarily in investment‑grade bonds and related derivatives that provide short duration exposure, typically emphasizing corporate credit alongside U.S. government and securitized sectors such as asset‑backed, mortgage‑backed, and commercial mortgage securities. The portfolio maintains a short interest‑rate profile, with an average effective duration of about two years, aiming to reduce sensitivity to rate changes relative to core bond funds with longer durations. As of June 2025, it held several hundred positions, reflecting diversified exposure across issuers and sectors, and paid income on a monthly schedule. The fund is positioned within the short‑term bond category, benchmarking performance against the Bloomberg 1–3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Index, and targets a blend of income and capital preservation through disciplined credit selection and active allocation across short‑dated investment‑grade markets.
