About GTDTX

Goldman Sachs Short Duration Government Fund Investor Class is an open‑end mutual fund that invests primarily in high‑quality, short‑maturity U.S. government and agency securities. Its objective is to deliver a high level of current income while maintaining relatively low interest‑rate sensitivity through a short duration profile, typically consistent with the short government category’s 1.0 to 3.5 year range. The portfolio emphasizes securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or government‑linked agencies, including adjustable‑rate mortgage‑backed instruments with periodic interest rate resets. This government backing concentrates the fund’s credit exposure in securities with minimal default risk while focusing risk management on duration and prepayment dynamics. The fund distributes income monthly and is positioned as a core short‑duration holding for liquidity management, cash segmentation, and ballast against broader fixed‑income volatility within diversified allocations. With an inception dating to 2007 and a diversified book of hundreds of holdings, it targets consistent income generation and capital preservation across interest‑rate cycles within the short government segment.
