About WSGIX

Allspring Short Duration Government Bond Fund – Institutional Class is an actively managed mutual fund in the taxable fixed income category. Its primary objective is total return with a focus on capital preservation, achieved by investing predominantly in high-quality debt issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies and government‑sponsored enterprises, while maintaining an average duration shorter than the three‑year U.S. Treasury benchmark. The strategy seeks to modestly outperform the Bloomberg U.S. 1‑3 Year Government Bond Index through bottom‑up security selection in a universe of liquid, high‑grade bonds, supported by proprietary risk management systems and a duration stance that is neutral to its benchmark. The fund distributes income monthly and is managed by an experienced team with multi‑decade tenures. Positioned within the short government segment, it plays a role as a core short‑duration holding for investors aiming to manage interest‑rate sensitivity and liquidity needs while accessing government and agency-backed exposures. The fund’s long operating history and disciplined process underscore its role in the market as a conservative, income‑oriented fixed income option.
