About PLUPX

PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund Class I-2 is an actively managed short‑term bond mutual fund designed to deliver maximum total return while emphasizing capital preservation and prudent risk control. The strategy focuses on a low average duration—typically around one to three years—to limit interest‑rate sensitivity, positioning the fund as a defensive core bond allocation for shorter horizons or as a liquidity‑aware complement to broader fixed income. The portfolio invests primarily in high‑quality government, agency, securitized, and investment‑grade corporate debt, employing PIMCO’s top‑down macro views and bottom‑up security selection. An environmental, social, and governance framework is integrated through security screening, issuer engagement, and exclusions intended to elevate the portfolio’s sustainability profile without sacrificing the fund’s primary return and risk objectives. Within the fixed‑income ecosystem, the fund targets the short‑term bond segment, offering potential diversification benefits and a vehicle for managing duration risk during changing rate cycles, while leveraging PIMCO’s global research platform and risk management processes.
