Pursuing Income in an Uncertain Environment: Rethinking the Short End

After years of watching the Fed for guidance, investors are entering a period where future interest rate policy may be less predictable. For advisors, this creates a practical challenge: How do you keep client assets working without taking unnecessary duration risk or sitting entirely in cash?

Join American Century Investments’ Global Fixed Income team as we:

  • Read the rate backdrop: We’ll review what today’s market backdrop suggests about inflation, growth and the Fed’s next move.
  • Rethink cash allocations: We’ll explain why cash may still have a role—but may not be the only answer—for clients seeking income.
  • Reveal opportunity at the short end: We’ll illustrate how actively managed ultrashort fixed income can help investors seek attractive income while maintaining flexibility in an uncertain rate environment.


The short end of the bond market can play an important role in client portfolios. Join us to hear where we see opportunities.
