Did you know?
Short duration high yield bonds carry maturities of three years or less, which means their prices are far less sensitive to interest rate movements than longer-dated bonds — allowing investors to capture the yield premium of junk bonds with significantly less interest rate risk. The trade-off is that these bonds mature quickly, requiring the issuing companies to frequently refinance their debt — a process that can become costly or difficult if credit conditions tighten. In rising rate environments, short duration high yield has historically been one of the strongest-performing segments of the fixed income market.
