About ANBEX

American Funds Strategic Bond Fund F-1 is an actively managed mutual fund classified within the intermediate core-plus bond category. Its primary objective is to deliver maximum total return while preserving capital by investing at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of bonds and debt securities. This fund includes a broad mix of asset types—such as U.S. and non-U.S. government bonds, corporate debt, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, and can also utilize derivatives—which provides managers flexibility to seek returns across varying market conditions. The portfolio maintains a duration typically between 75% and 125% of the Morningstar Core Bond Index, balancing interest rate risk and reward potential. Managed by Capital Research and Management Company, the fund is positioned to appeal to investors seeking an alternative or complement to traditional core bond funds as well as those diversifying away from equities. Its holdings are predominantly in U.S. bonds, but it also maintains exposure to international fixed income markets, aiming for above-average yield while managing credit and sector risk. The fund pays quarterly dividends and targets investors interested in a flexible, research-driven bond strategy that can adapt to changing market environments.
