Our read on NBSD
In short
DA 1986 mutual fund that swapped into an ETF wrapper in 2024: same team, same mandate. It hunts the highest current income it can find in investment-grade bonds while holding duration to three years or less, and pays monthly.
Stated mandate
The fund seeks the highest available current income while maintaining liquidity and limiting principal risk; total return is secondary. It invests at least 80% of net assets in investment-grade fixed- and floating-rate debt and normally targets average portfolio duration of three years or less.
