About MSHQX

BlackRock Total Return Fund Service Shares is an actively managed mutual fund focusing on investment grade fixed income securities across varying maturities. Its primary objective is to achieve a total return that surpasses that of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, serving as a benchmark for broad-based U.S. bond market exposure. The fund adopts a core-plus strategy, granting its managers the flexibility to allocate assets not only to core government and investment-grade corporate bonds, but also to select securitized products and limited high-yield or international exposures for added diversification. Managed by BlackRock’s seasoned fixed income team, the fund leverages the firm’s significant scale and research capabilities to navigate complex interest rate and credit environments. As an intermediate core-plus bond fund, it appeals to investors seeking a balance of income and capital preservation within a diversified fixed income portfolio. The fund does not explicitly integrate environmental, social, or governance (ESG) criteria in its strategy, instead emphasizing broad market coverage and active management to enhance total return potential relative to prominent bond benchmarks.
