Our read on FCOR
BFidelity's in-house take on corporate credit: roughly 400 investment-grade corporate bonds picked without a declared index to follow, with income paid out monthly. The trade-off is price, in a category where the index giants charge pennies.
The fund seeks a high level of current income and normally invests at least 80% of its assets in investment-grade corporate bonds and related corporate debt securities.
Why people hold it
- Does exactly what the label says: at least 80% of assets in investment-grade corporate bonds and related corporate debt, with current income as the stated goal.institutional.fidelity.com
- Roughly 400 bonds under the hood and a monthly distribution schedule, so income lands on a regular cadence instead of quarterly.
- No declared index behind it. The portfolio reflects Fidelity's own credit calls rather than a benchmark's rulebook, and it has stayed tight to its stated corporate mandate.
- Launched in 2014, so this is a seasoned fund with a full credit cycle behind it, not a recent product-shelf addition.
Worth knowing
- The 0.36% expense ratio is the headline trade-off: the biggest indexed rivals in this space, VCIT and USIG, charge 0.03% and 0.04%.
- Trades lightly next to the category's heavyweights, which can mean wider bid-ask spreads, especially on larger orders.
- Add up cost and trading friction and it sits in the lower half of the investment-grade corporate bond field on our read.
