About MXHYX
Empower High Yield Bond Fund Investor Class is a mutual fund within the fixed income asset class, specializing in high yield, high risk corporate bonds. Its primary purpose is to generate high current income for investors, with capital appreciation as a secondary goal. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its net assets to below investment-grade corporate fixed income securities, which may have either fixed or floating interest rates. This focus positions the fund to play a significant role in the high yield segment of the bond market, making it relevant for investors seeking enhanced income potential from more credit-sensitive corporate issuers. With a diverse portfolio reported to contain around 500 holdings, the fund offers broad exposure to the corporate high yield sector. Regular semi-annual dividends and an accessible minimum investment requirement further characterize the fund’s offering, making it an option for income-focused investors looking to diversify across lower-rated corporate debt instruments.
