About RCWBX

Capital World Bond Fund Class R-2 is a global bond mutual fund focused on delivering a high level of total return while adhering to prudent investment management principles. The fund primarily invests in debt securities issued by governmental, supranational, and corporate entities across various currencies, with a significant allocation to both U.S. and international bonds—approximately 39.7% in U.S. issues and 55.0% in non-U.S. issues as of mid-2025. Utilizing a multimanager approach, the portfolio is segmented and managed independently by several portfolio managers, allowing for diversified perspectives and strategies within a single fund. The fund's holdings span asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities, as well as direct government bonds from both developed and emerging markets. Derivatives such as forward currency contracts, futures, and swaps may be employed to manage risk or seek additional return. With over $9.9 billion in assets and more than 770 issuers in its portfolio, the fund plays a prominent role in providing global fixed income exposure to investors, particularly those seeking diversification beyond domestic markets and aiming for stability through disciplined, research-driven bond selection.
