About NWAZX

The Loomis Sayles Core Bond Fund is a mutual fund focused on providing investors with broad exposure to the U.S. fixed-income market. Its primary purpose is to deliver a combination of current income and capital preservation by investing predominantly in high-quality bonds, including U.S. government securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, and various mortgage-backed or asset-backed securities. The fund may also allocate a portion of its assets to foreign bonds, although its core holdings are centered around U.S. dollar-denominated debt instruments. The fund is managed to maintain a diversified portfolio in terms of issuers, maturities, and sectors, with a typical average maturity close to nine years and an average coupon rate around 4%. It aims to closely track or modestly outperform benchmark indices like the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, balancing interest rate and credit risk while employing rigorous security selection and sector allocation strategies. By offering investors stable income streams and moderate risk, the Loomis Sayles Core Bond Fund plays a vital role as a foundational holding for long-term investors seeking exposure to the core of the fixed-income market.
