About WAFAX

Western Asset Inflation Indexed Plus Bond Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on providing investors with total return while maintaining capital preservation. Its primary objective is to maximize returns by investing at least 80% of its net assets in inflation-indexed fixed income securities, such as Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) and similar debt instruments. These securities are designed to adjust their principal values in line with changes in inflation, offering a measure of protection against the eroding effects of rising prices. The fund's portfolio is predominantly composed of U.S. Treasury bonds and notes, reflecting a strategy that emphasizes credit quality and stability. As part of the inflation-protected bond category, this fund plays a vital role for investors seeking to hedge against inflation risk within their broader fixed income allocation. It is managed by a team of professionals who oversee sector allocation, security selection, and duration management to align with the fund's risk-return objectives. The fund serves institutions and individual investors who prioritize inflation-adjusted returns and capital preservation within a diversified investment strategy.
