About CPTNX

The American Century Government Bond Fund Investor Class is a mutual fund specializing in U.S. government debt securities. Its primary objective is to provide high current income by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. Treasuries, government agency bonds, and related securities. The fund may also allocate a portion to mortgage-backed securities issued by agencies such as Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac, as well as engage in repurchase agreements for liquidity management. Positioned in the intermediate government bond category, the fund typically maintains moderate interest rate sensitivity and high credit quality, reflecting the stable and low-default risk profile of U.S. government obligations. This role enables the fund to act as a core fixed income holding for investors seeking regular income and capital preservation, while offering diversification benefits within broader portfolios. With a relatively low expense ratio and moderate effective duration, the American Century Government Bond Fund Investor Class serves as a reliable option for conservative investors focused on stability and consistent income generation in U.S. dollar terms.
