Under classification review
This fund does not currently behave like the group it was assigned to, so its grouping is being re-reviewed. Grading pauses until the review resolves, because a letter measured against the wrong peer group would be a statement about the wrong funds.
Our read on PCFI
In short
Most high-yield ETFs buy fixed-coupon junk bonds. PCFI buys senior secured bank loans whose coupons reset with short-term rates, hand-picked from middle-market borrowers by an active credit team.
Stated mandate
The Fund seeks total return through high current income and long-term capital appreciation, primarily by investing in fixed- and floating-rate high-yield fixed-income securities.
