- What does JHNBX invest in?
- The primary objective of this fund is to achieve significant current income while adhering to a cautious investment risk profile. At least 80% of its net assets, supplemented by any borrowed capital for investment, are dedicated to a broad and varied portfolio of fixed-income instruments. Management expects that a minimum of 75% of the fund's net assets will be held in high-quality debt securities or highly liquid cash equivalents. Investments in non-U.S. dollar denominated securities are capped at 10% of its total assets. Ordinarily, the fund does not intend for its holdings in U.S. dollar-denominated foreign securities (excluding those from Canada) to surpass 25% of its total assets.
