Fund info

GMO Opportunistic Income Fund Class R6 is an open‑end mutual fund focused on capital appreciation and current income through diversified exposure to securitized and other debt markets. The strategy targets the structured finance universe, allocating flexibly across asset-backed securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, student loans, autos, and other niche segments to capture dislocations and inefficiencies. The portfolio is actively managed using top‑down and bottom‑up selection to balance risk and return, with relatively short effective duration and broad issue count supporting risk dispersion. Credit quality spans the full spectrum, reflecting an unconstrained approach to rating buckets while emphasizing pricing discipline and structural analysis. The fund’s role in the market is to provide access to specialized segments of fixed income that are often underrepresented in core bond allocations, aiming to complement traditional exposures with differentiated drivers of income and total return. According to sponsor materials and independent profiles, it seeks opportunities across private and public issuers and multiple geographies, with attention to liquidity, credit, and structural risks inherent to asset‑backed securities.
