About TAAUX
Transamerica Short-Term Bond R4 is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating income with limited interest rate sensitivity through a diversified portfolio of short-duration fixed income securities. The strategy emphasizes corporate credit alongside U.S. government and agency holdings, aiming to balance yield and capital preservation within the short-term bond category. The fund typically maintains an effective duration of under two years, positioning it to reduce price volatility from rate movements while seeking steady coupon income. It invests across sectors including financials, industrials, and utilities, and may use Treasury futures to fine-tune duration and liquidity management. The vehicle serves as a core short-maturity bond allocation for investors seeking a lower-volatility complement to equities or longer-duration bonds, a liquidity sleeve, or a ballast within multi-asset portfolios. Managed within Transamerica’s fixed income platform, it applies a credit-focused process that evaluates issuer fundamentals, spread opportunities, and risk controls across hundreds of holdings to achieve broad diversification and consistent income generation.
