Bond Funds in Australia
1 fund found
Bond funds invest in a portfolio of fixed-rate or floating-rate bonds issued by governments, banks and corporations. Investors earn returns from regular interest (coupon) payments and, where bonds are traded before maturity, from changes in their market price. Bond funds offer a way to access diversified fixed income exposure without buying individual bonds, which can be difficult for retail investors to assemble directly. Government bonds are generally considered lower risk than corporate bonds, while high-yield or sub-investment grade bonds carry higher credit risk. Interest rate movements affect bond prices — when rates rise, existing bond values typically fall. The AusBiz Invest Bond Funds category lists Australian bond funds from a range of issuers, with details on credit quality, duration, fees, minimum investment and documentation. Fixed income carries credit and interest-rate risk. Review the PDS and TMD before investing.
