About NWXNX

The Nationwide Inflation-Protected Securities Fund Institutional Service Class is a mutual fund that primarily targets investors seeking portfolio protection against inflation. Its main objective is to provide both inflation protection and income by investing at least 80% of its net assets in fixed-income securities that are indexed or linked to the rate of inflation in the United States, such as Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). Notable for its focus within the inflation-protected bond category, the fund typically holds a diversified portfolio of inflation-indexed securities, actively managing risk and duration to help preserve purchasing power. The fund distributes income quarterly, setting it apart for those prioritizing steady, inflation-hedged returns. With a relatively low expense ratio and structured as an institutional share class, it caters to larger-scale investors and institutional portfolios. This fund plays a crucial role in fixed-income allocations, especially for investors concerned about the erosive effects of rising prices on traditional bond holdings and long-term assets.
