Our read on MANI
DAn income-first bond fund that runs on a manager's credit calls, not an index. Launched in 2025 into a high yield aisle dominated by ultra-cheap trackers, it is the active alternative, and priced like one.
The Fund seeks current income, while capital growth is secondary.
Why people hold it
- Actively run with a clear hierarchy: current income first, capital growth second. No index to shadow, so the manager can move around the credit market.
- Pays income quarterly, with the prospectus committing to distributions at least annually.
- Plain 1940 Act fund structure: ordinary 1099 tax reporting, no K-1 to wait on.
- Its price swings so far sit among the steadier in the high yield group, though that read comes from a short history.
Worth knowing
- The fee is 0.85% a year, roughly double the typical high yield ETF, and index heavyweights like SPHY, USHY and SCYB charge a small fraction of that.
- A 2025 launch that is still small and thinly traded, so bid-ask spreads can be wide and every order moves a bigger share of the day's volume.
- Nothing here is on autopilot. Results hang on the manager's credit selection, and the fund has not yet seen a full credit cycle.
