About GMDZX

GuideStone Funds Medium-Duration Bond Fund Investor Class is an actively managed fixed income mutual fund designed to seek maximum total return while emphasizing the preservation of capital. Using a multi-manager approach, the fund strategically blends bottom-up fundamental research with top-down macroeconomic analysis, enabling dynamic responses to a variety of market conditions. It primarily invests in U.S. investment-grade bonds—including Treasuries, mortgage-backed securities, and corporate debt—while maintaining the flexibility to allocate a portion of its assets to high-yield securities and non-U.S. obligations, thus ensuring a broad and well-diversified portfolio. The fund is distinctive in its integration of a faith-based investment framework, screening holdings based on specific ethical criteria. With thousands of holdings across sectors and a core orientation toward the intermediate-duration segment of the bond market, it aims to deliver risk-adjusted returns that can serve as a foundational component for asset allocators seeking balance between yield and stability. Managed by an array of established sub-advisers under GuideStone’s direction, the fund has held a notable place in the U.S. fixed income landscape since its inception in 2001.
