About LDLKX

The Lord Abbett Short Duration Income Fund Class R4 is a mutual fund specializing in short-term, investment-grade fixed income securities. Its primary objective is to provide a high level of current income while preserving capital, making it relevant for investors seeking a balance of income generation and reduced interest rate sensitivity. The fund typically allocates at least 65% of its assets to investment-grade debt instruments, including corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, bank loans, mortgage-backed securities, and select government and sovereign bonds. Its active management approach allows for diversification across maturities—generally focusing on securities with durations under three years—and credit qualities, including selective exposure to high yield and convertible bonds. The portfolio’s broad sectoral allocation supports its goal of stable income, distributed monthly. With significant assets under management and a competitive expense ratio, the fund plays a notable role within the short-term bond category, offering a flexible, risk-aware solution for managing cash or short-duration allocations in institutional and individual portfolios.
