About AXSIX

Axonic Strategic Income Fund Class I Shares is a multisector bond mutual fund focused on maximizing total return through a blend of current income and capital appreciation. The strategy concentrates on income-producing instruments across structured credit, with core allocations to residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed sectors. The portfolio emphasizes short-duration, senior, and highly credit-protected positions, aiming to balance yield with interest-rate and spread risk management. The fund may also allocate to real estate investment trusts, mortgage-related equities, and mortgage derivatives, reflecting a flexible mandate within securitized markets. It references the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index for context while pursuing differentiated exposures in RMBS, CMBS, and ABS. Management highlights liquidity from ongoing paydowns to redeploy capital and maintain portfolio resilience, alongside targeted positioning in areas such as multifamily and extended-stay lodging within commercial real estate. This approach positions the fund as a specialized vehicle within fixed income, seeking to harness structural protections and cash flows from securitized assets to deliver risk-adjusted total returns.
