About MQLIX

MFS Limited Maturity Fund Class I is an actively managed short‑term bond mutual fund designed to deliver total return with an emphasis on current income while considering capital preservation. The strategy focuses on **investment‑grade** fixed income and builds a **high‑quality, short‑duration** portfolio from the bottom up, seeking to limit interest‑rate sensitivity and diversify across sectors to moderate risk. The fund references the Bloomberg 1–3 Year U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index as a benchmark for the short end of the high‑quality bond market, underscoring its conservative positioning. This share class dates back to 1997, aligning with a long operating history for the strategy that commenced in 1992. Regular income distribution and a disciplined risk framework position the fund as a core option for investors seeking stability and liquidity characteristics within fixed income, particularly for parking capital with reduced duration exposure relative to intermediate‑term bond funds. As of mid‑2025, reported net assets for the overall strategy were in the multi‑billion range, reflecting its role as a notable vehicle in the short‑term bond category.
