About RSDTX

Russell Investments Short Duration Bond Fund Class M is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating current income and preserving capital through a diversified portfolio of short-duration fixed income securities. The strategy emphasizes bonds with limited interest-rate sensitivity, seeking to reduce price volatility compared with intermediate and long-duration peers while maintaining meaningful income potential. According to Russell Investments materials, the fund primarily holds investment-grade credit across government, agency, securitized, and corporate bonds, with selective exposure to lower-rated debt to enhance yield within a controlled risk framework. The portfolio’s credit mix has included substantial allocations to AAA, A, and BBB tiers, reflecting a balance between quality and income objectives. Managed by Russell Investments’ global fixed income team using a multi-manager, research-driven approach, the fund aims to provide core short-term bond exposure suitable for investors seeking a conservative anchor within fixed income allocations. Disclosures highlight standard bond risks, including interest rate, credit, prepayment, and liquidity risks, which can affect returns even in short-duration mandates.
