About TABEX
Transamerica Core Bond Fund Class C is an open-end mutual fund focused on intermediate-term fixed income investments. The fund primarily seeks to achieve maximum total return by investing at least 80% of its net assets in investment grade debt securities, which include U.S. government obligations, corporate bonds, and mortgage-backed securities—both those guaranteed by government agencies and those without government guarantees. This diversified approach helps balance interest rate and credit risks while targeting stable income generation for investors. The fund holds a broad portfolio, with several hundred holdings, reflecting a comprehensive exposure to core segments of the U.S. bond market. Managed by Transamerica Asset Management Inc., the fund’s objective positions it as a foundational fixed income option within diversified portfolios, catering to those seeking moderate risk and consistent income. Class C shares are notable for their fee structure, typically including a contingent deferred sales charge for redemptions within the first year, making them suited for investors with an intermediate investment horizon. Established in November 2022, the fund offers exposure to the aggregate U.S. bond market through a professionally managed and diversified vehicle.
