About PYLMX
Payden Limited Maturity Fund is an open‑end ultrashort bond mutual fund focused on generating total return above prevailing money market rates while preserving liquidity. The strategy invests primarily in high‑quality, short‑term fixed income, including U.S. government securities, investment‑grade corporate bonds, and mortgage‑ and asset‑backed securities, with a maximum average portfolio maturity of two and one‑half years. The fund emphasizes investment‑grade exposure, with the flexibility to hold a small allocation to lower‑rated issues, and targets minimal interest‑rate sensitivity consistent with the ultrashort category. It distributes income on a monthly basis and tracks the ICE BofA U.S. 3‑Month Treasury Bill Index as a performance benchmark for context. Since its 1994 inception, the fund has been positioned for investors seeking a step up from cash yields while maintaining a relatively low duration profile and broad diversification across sectors and issuers. Its cost structure is designed to be competitive within the ultrashort peer group, and the portfolio often includes U.S. Treasury bills and other high‑quality instruments to support liquidity and stability.
Performance
PYLMX had a total return of 2.10% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 2.72%.
