About LIFCX

Lord Abbett Inflation Focused Fund Class C is an actively managed mutual fund designed to deliver total returns that exceed U.S. inflation over a full inflation cycle. The strategy centers on a blend of inflation‑linked instruments—such as inflation‑indexed bonds and CPI‑linked derivatives—combined with a diversified portfolio of short‑duration fixed income securities to manage interest rate sensitivity. The portfolio typically references the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers as its inflation gauge and may use Treasury futures and interest rate swaps to fine‑tune duration and inflation exposure. Positioned within the short‑term inflation‑protected bond category, the fund emphasizes capital preservation and steady income through monthly distributions while seeking to hedge purchasing‑power risk. It maintains a broad opportunity set across sectors within fixed income, with hundreds of holdings to diversify issuer and sector exposure. Since its 2011 inception, the vehicle has operated with a single management approach focused on balancing realized inflation capture with prudent risk controls, supported by the firm’s research and trading platform. Key structural features include a stated expense ratio, minimum initial investment, and a distribution schedule aligned to its income‑oriented mandate.
