About SGVSX
Western Asset Mortgage Total Return Fund Class 1 is an open-end mutual fund focused on generating a high current return by primarily investing in mortgage-backed securities. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its assets to these securities, which are often issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies such as the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Government National Mortgage Association. It is categorized as an "intermediate core-plus bond" fund, meaning it primarily holds investment-grade U.S. fixed-income instruments—including government, corporate, and securitized debt—while retaining flexibility to include non-core sectors like high-yield or emerging markets debt when market conditions warrant. The fund exhibits moderate interest rate sensitivity and relatively high credit quality, and is notable for its sizable exposure to mortgaged-backed products within the broader bond landscape. Its primary role in the market is to provide investors diversified access to the mortgage securities sector, contributing income potential and diversification within fixed-income portfolios, especially for those seeking exposure beyond traditional core bond offerings.
Performance
