About NELYX

Loomis Sayles Limited Term Government and Agency Fund Class Y is an actively managed mutual fund focused on short-duration U.S. government and agency debt. Its primary objective is to seek high current return consistent with preservation of capital by emphasizing high-quality securities backed by the U.S. government or government-linked agencies, which helps minimize credit risk. The portfolio typically maintains an effective duration around two to four years, positioning it with limited interest-rate sensitivity relative to longer-duration bond strategies. The fund normally invests at least 80% of assets in U.S. Treasuries, agency mortgage-backed securities, and other government-related instruments, with the flexibility to hold select securitized and investment-grade credit to enhance income. Managed by a seasoned team at Loomis, Sayles & Company, the strategy sits in the Short Government category and is designed to provide dependable income and stability within a broader fixed income allocation. Notable portfolio traits include significant allocations to U.S. Treasuries and agency MBS, a large issue count for diversification, and a historically active turnover profile aligned with its tactical approach to interest-rate and yield-curve positioning.
