Fund info

Goldman Sachs Inflation Protected Securities Fund Class R6 is a mutual fund specializing in inflation-protected fixed income securities. Its primary function is to offer real returns that align with the preservation of capital by primarily investing at least 80% of its assets in inflation-protected securities—most notably U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS)—as well as similar instruments issued by U.S. and international government agencies and corporations. Class R6 shares are specifically designed for institutional investors, featuring lower expense ratios and higher minimum investment requirements. The fund’s strategy employs detailed fundamental analysis with an emphasis on relative value and risk management, seeking to diversify sources of return and mitigate short-term market mispricings. With a portfolio heavily weighted towards U.S. government bonds and an effective duration of around seven years, the fund serves an important role for investors aiming to hedge against inflation risk while preserving capital. It is benchmarked against the Bloomberg U.S. TIPS Index, underscoring its focus within the inflation-protected bond category and its significance for investors requiring stable, inflation-adjusted income streams within a diversified fixed-income portfolio.
