About SMSVX
Hartford Schroders Emerging Markets Multi-Sector Bond Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to deliver long-term capital growth and income by investing primarily in bonds issued by entities located in emerging market countries. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its assets to fixed-income securities across government, corporate, and sovereign issuers in emerging economies, offering broad sector and regional exposure. It actively manages a diverse portfolio, aiming to balance capital preservation and appreciation by navigating the complex risk and reward profile of emerging market debt instruments. With a focus on credit quality and interest rate sensitivity, the fund assumes a low credit quality and extensive interest rate exposure, reflecting the often-volatile conditions within emerging bond markets. It holds a range of sovereign and corporate bonds, with notable allocations to entities such as Petroleos Mexicanos, various Latin American governments, and select financial institutions. The fund’s role in the financial market is to serve as a gateway for investors seeking diversification and potential higher yields through access to emerging market fixed income—an asset class known for its unique growth prospects and heightened risks relative to developed market bonds.
