About ITACX

Transamerica Short-Term Bond Fund Class C is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating a high level of income with limited price volatility. It primarily invests in investment‑grade U.S. fixed-income securities with a short effective duration, positioning the portfolio to be less sensitive to interest-rate movements than intermediate- or long-term peers. The strategy emphasizes corporate credit, with a sizable allocation to investment‑grade corporates complemented by U.S. Treasuries, securitized debt, and short-term instruments; the portfolio is diversified across hundreds of bond holdings and may use Treasury futures for rate management. The fund targets the short-term bond segment as defined by Morningstar, typically maintaining duration between roughly one to three and a half years to balance income and stability. It is designed for investors seeking current income and capital preservation features within the short end of the yield curve, offering daily liquidity and a straightforward, credit‑centric process overseen by a collaborative management team. The share class features a level‑load structure and ongoing distribution fees consistent with Class C mutual fund shares.
