About TODCX
Touchstone Active Bond Fund Class C is an open-end mutual fund focused on delivering a high level of current income while prioritizing the preservation of capital. Classified within the intermediate core-plus bond category, this fund primarily invests at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of investment-grade U.S. bonds, including government, corporate, and securitized debt. The fund’s strategy enables selective exposure to non-core sectors such as corporate high yield, bank loans, emerging-market debt, and non-U.S. currency securities, providing broader flexibility compared to core-only peers.
Touchstone Active Bond Fund Class C employs an active management approach, seeking opportunities across a range of economic environments and interest rate cycles. Its holdings typically maintain an average effective maturity of between 5 and 15 years, with interest-rate sensitivity generally aligned with intermediate-term bond benchmarks. The fund pays dividends monthly, reflecting its income-oriented mandate, and has historically maintained a moderate risk profile with lower volatility relative to equity investments.
Established in 1994, the fund plays a significant role for investors looking for an income-generating option in fixed income, utilizing a flexible, diversified strategy that adapts to evolving U.S. and global credit markets.
