About VHYIX
The Venerable High Yield Fund is a mutual fund focused on generating a high level of current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. It primarily invests at least 80% of its net assets in high yield corporate debt securities, commonly referred to as "junk bonds" due to their lower credit ratings and higher default risk relative to investment-grade bonds. This fund’s portfolio is diversified across various sectors to mitigate company-specific risk, while still targeting bonds with attractive yields. The Venerable High Yield Fund is structured to appeal to investors seeking higher income potential compared to traditional bond offerings, albeit with the understanding that this strategy involves greater credit risk and market volatility. The fund's approach supports income-oriented strategies and plays a significant role in the broader fixed income market by providing liquidity to lower-rated corporate issuers and offering investors access to the high yield segment.
Performance
VHYIX had a total return of 3.60% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 3.31%.
