About GSGOX

Goldman Sachs Government Income Fund Class A is an open-end mutual fund designed to provide a high level of current income while preserving capital. The fund primarily invests in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, and government-sponsored enterprises, including Treasury notes, bonds, and mortgage-backed securities. Its portfolio holdings are concentrated in high-credit-quality government debt, aiming to balance interest income with moderate interest rate sensitivity and risk. The fund screens and actively manages government securities to optimize risk-adjusted returns, leveraging Goldman Sachs’ rigorous investment process and risk management discipline. Commonly categorized as an intermediate government bond fund, it holds hundreds of bond issues, with no equity investments and minimal exposure to foreign securities. The fund serves both individual and institutional investors seeking income with capital stability, and it plays a significant role in diversified portfolios as a core fixed income holding, contributing stability and a steady income stream through exposure to U.S. government credit.
