About MPFDX

Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund Trust Corporate Bond Portfolio Class I is an open-ended mutual fund focused on U.S. dollar-denominated corporate bonds. The portfolio primarily targets investment-grade debt, with at least 80% of its assets allocated to bonds rated Baa3/BBB- or higher by major credit agencies, or those deemed of comparable quality by the portfolio managers. Its chief objective is to generate above-average total returns over a market cycle of three to five years, achieved by balancing income generation with capital appreciation. The fund applies a disciplined investment approach that combines macroeconomic analysis with rigorous security-level research, seeking value across high- and medium-quality corporate issuers. The portfolio often maintains a diversified mix across sectors and issuers and typically targets a weighted average maturity between five and ten years. This positions the fund as a tool for institutional investors looking to access broad exposure to corporate credit while seeking competitive yields relative to traditional government bonds. With hundreds of holdings and active management by experienced fixed income professionals, the fund plays a strategic role in providing income and credit diversification within the broader fixed income universe.
