Its holdings generally feature a weighted average maturity ranging from five to ten years. Portfolio construction relies on fundamental analysis and a bottom-up security selection approach, supported by proprietary models and internal research. Established on July 31, 2003, and domiciled in the U.S., the fund was formerly known as AGIC Convertible & Income Fund II.
