Fixed income securities carry credit and interest rate risks. Credit risk is the chance that an issuer may fail to make interest payments or repay principal, which can negatively impact fund performance. Securities with longer maturities and lower credit quality are more vulnerable to credit risk. Interest rate risk involves value changes in debt due to interest rate fluctuations; rising rates typically lower debt prices, while falling rates usually increase them. Longer-duration debt is more affected by these changes, making it more volatile. Recent interest rate hikes may continue, increasing associated risks.
