About BCPRX

Brandes Core Plus Fixed Income Fund Class R6 is a mutual fund designed to maximize long-term total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation. The fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of debt obligations issued by U.S. corporations, with flexibility to include up to 25% of its assets in high-yield (below investment grade) securities and an additional allowance for non-U.S. dollar denominated bonds from corporations or government issuers. The portfolio typically consists of a mix of U.S. Treasuries, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and cash equivalents. As of June 2025, the fund held approximately 73 securities, with a notable allocation to high credit quality instruments (a significant portion in AAA-rated bonds) and an average portfolio maturity of roughly 7.7 years. The investment approach relies on fundamental analysis, evaluating factors such as free cash flow, debt metrics, and earnings stability. The fund distributes income monthly and is commonly utilized by institutional investors and eligible retirement plans looking for balanced exposure to core and opportunistic segments of the fixed income market, aiming to provide resilience across changing interest rate and credit environments.
