About SAMBX
Virtus Seix Floating Rate High Income Fund Class I is a mutual fund that seeks a high level of current income by investing at least 80% of its net assets in floating rate senior bank loans, primarily first- and second-lien leveraged loans. These loans typically carry variable interest rates that reset periodically based on short-term benchmarks, helping to reduce interest rate risk in rising rate environments. The fund focuses on non-investment grade credits, emphasizing BB- and B-rated loans selected through rigorous bottom-up credit analysis to target healthier, undervalued borrowers within the leveraged loan market. With a low effective duration, the fund is structured to provide relatively stable income and act as a potential hedge against rising interest rates. It offers exposure to a diversified portfolio of senior secured loans across a range of industries, including technology, financials, energy, and healthcare, and is managed by Seix Investment Advisors, a specialist in leveraged finance and fixed income strategies. The fund is commonly used by income-oriented investors seeking higher yield with a disciplined, risk-aware approach to the bank loan asset class.
Performance
SAMBX had a total return of 8.41% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 4.25%.
