About NCRAX

Neuberger Berman Core Bond Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on providing total return consistent with capital preservation by investing in a diversified portfolio of high-quality, investment-grade fixed income securities. The fund actively manages exposure across sectors such as U.S. Treasuries, agency mortgage-backed securities, corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, and select collateralized loan obligations. Designed to serve as a core holding within a fixed income allocation, it seeks to navigate economic cycles, capitalize on market dislocations, and manage risk through value-driven security selection and sector allocation. The fund typically maintains a duration that tracks closely to the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, making it suitable for investors targeting moderate credit quality and interest rate sensitivity. Its holdings generally emphasize U.S. government and investment-grade corporate issuers, with a selective, conviction-based approach that contrasts with more broadly diversified index funds. Neuberger Berman Core Bond Fund Class A plays a significant role in the U.S. mutual fund landscape as an option for investors seeking a professionally managed, actively allocated core bond strategy for income and stability within their investment portfolios.
