About NWXEX

Nationwide Strategic Income Fund Class A is a multisector bond mutual fund designed to deliver a high level of current income through a flexible, actively managed approach. The fund invests across diverse fixed-income securities—including government, corporate, mortgage-backed, and derivative instruments—without binding constraints on credit quality, maturity, sector, or geographic location. This broad mandate allows the fund to tactically adjust allocations to take advantage of shifting market conditions and opportunities within global fixed-income markets. Notable features include a substantial number of underlying holdings, a medium credit quality profile, and a relatively short effective duration, which moderates sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations. The fund’s income generation is supported by frequent dividend distributions and above-average yield relative to peers. With its dynamic, multisector strategy, Nationwide Strategic Income Fund Class A plays a pivotal role in providing diversification and current income for investors seeking alternatives beyond traditional bond portfolios.
