About RCBBX
The American Funds Corporate Bond Fund Class R-2 is a mutual fund designed to offer investors exposure to the U.S. investment-grade corporate bond market. Its main purpose is to seek maximum total return while maintaining a strong emphasis on capital preservation and prudent risk management. The fund achieves this by investing primarily in U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade corporate bonds, ensuring a diversified approach across sectors within the corporate debt space. The portfolio typically holds over 190 issuers and maintains a substantial allocation to both U.S. and select non-U.S. bonds, with a minor portion in cash and equivalents. Effective portfolio management is reflected in metrics such as an average effective duration of roughly 6.6 years, a notable average yield to worst of about 5%, and a regular distribution schedule with monthly dividends. The fund’s strategy is tailored for those seeking dedicated corporate bond exposure, enhancement of current income compared to core bond funds, and overall portfolio diversification, given its low correlation with equities. Managed by Capital Research and Management Company, this fund appeals to investors prioritizing steady income and disciplined risk oversight in fixed income markets.
Performance
