About MSTLX
MassMutual Short-Duration Bond Fund – Administrative Class is an open-end mutual fund focused on investment-grade, short-maturity fixed income. Its primary objective is to deliver a high total rate of return derived mainly from current income while seeking to limit net asset value volatility through shorter duration positioning. The portfolio typically invests across high-quality government, agency, corporate, and securitized bonds, emphasizing risk control and liquidity characteristics common to the short-term bond category. This share class targets investors who require consistent income distributions with lower interest-rate sensitivity than intermediate- or long-duration strategies. With a long operating history dating to 1999 and a diversified holdings base numbering in the hundreds, the fund plays a role as a core short-term fixed income allocation, a cash-management upgrade, or a ballast alongside equity and longer-duration exposures. Its monthly distribution cadence and administrative share class structure support use in retirement and advisory platforms where predictable income streams and operational flexibility are valued.
