The Loomis Sayles Inflation Protected Securities Fund Retail Class is a mutual fund designed to deliver a high total return through a mix of current income and capital appreciation. Its primary investment focus is on inflation-protected securities, notably U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS), with at least 80% of its assets allocated to these instruments. The fund can also invest in other fixed income assets, such as nominal Treasury bonds, corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, and mortgage-backed securities, and may allocate up to 10% in lower-rated, high-yield debt to potentially enhance diversification and yield. This flexible approach provides exposure to a broad range of fixed income sectors while maintaining an emphasis on inflation mitigation. The fund is managed by a dedicated team employing strategies aligned with the Bloomberg US Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index. It is suitable for investors seeking to preserve purchasing power in inflationary environments while benefiting from professional fixed income management. The fund distributes income quarterly and has demonstrated a consistent record of dividend payouts. By focusing on inflation-protected debt, the fund plays a specialized role in helping investors manage interest rate and inflation risk within a diversified portfolio.
