About MSBYX

MassMutual Short-Duration Bond Fund Service Class is an open-end mutual fund focused on investment-grade fixed income with a short interest-rate profile. Its primary objective is to deliver a high total rate of return primarily from current income while seeking to minimize fluctuations in capital values through short-duration positioning. The portfolio is predominantly allocated to bonds with a meaningful cash sleeve, reflecting an emphasis on liquidity and rate risk control rather than equity exposure. Reported holdings indicate exposure to diversified securitized credit—including asset-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, and collateralized loan obligation tranches—alongside investment-grade corporate issuers and cash equivalents, highlighting a multi-sector approach within the short-duration universe. The fund’s role in the market is to provide a conservative core bond allocation that targets lower volatility and reduced sensitivity to interest-rate movements relative to intermediate-term bond strategies, while still aiming to capture income from high-quality short-term debt. It serves investors and plan sponsors seeking stability, diversification from equities, and a mechanism to manage duration risk within fixed income allocations.
