BGH: High Yield, Fully Covered Distribution, But Is It A Buy?
Barings Global Short Duration High Yield Fund is a high-yield corporate bond fund that focuses on generating high current income and preserving invested capital. BGH currently offers a very attractive and fully covered 9.25% distribution yield and is currently trading at a small discount of roughly -1.5%, making it a bit expensive. It is probably a good bet to get consistent and fully covered high income from a diversified portfolio of short-duration, high-yield bonds that are relatively less sensitive to interest rates.

The global high-yield bond market is stable with tight spreads and low default rates, presenting opportunities in funds with low-interest rate sensitivity.

BGH's portfolio managers exploit inefficiencies between geographies and capital structures, aiming for higher relative returns with low-interest rate sensitivity.

5 Best CEFs This Month For Nearly 10% Yield (January 2025)
For income investors, closed-end funds, or CEFs, remain an attractive investment class that covers various asset classes and promises high distributions and reasonable total returns. CEFs are generally characterized by higher volatility and deeper draw-downs than the broader market. For these reasons, they are not suited for everyone. In this monthly series, we highlight five CEFs with solid track records that pay high distributions and offer “excess” discounts. We try to separate the wheat from the chaff using our filtering process to select just five CEFs every month from around 500 closed-end funds.
