About EPIBX

EuroPac International Bond Fund Class A is an actively managed mutual fund focused on non‑U.S. fixed income across Europe and the Pacific Rim. Its primary purpose is to seek current income and capital appreciation by investing at least 80% of assets in foreign government and corporate bonds, paired with a deliberate, diversified basket of currencies expected to exhibit durable strength against the U.S. dollar. The strategy blends top‑down country and currency allocation with bottom‑up security selection, emphasizing issuers in markets with favorable growth, trade balances, real interest rates, debt profiles, and demographics. The portfolio typically includes a mix of sovereigns and high‑quality supranationals and agencies, alongside selectively chosen corporates to enhance yield while maintaining controlled interest‑rate risk. Management highlights disciplined risk controls and benefits from shared research with affiliated international equity strategies. Within the global bond category, the fund’s positioning offers exposure to both developed and select emerging markets, providing investors with diversified credit and currency drivers distinct from U.S. core fixed income.
