The FlexShares® High Yield Value-Scored Bond Index Fund (HYGV) tracks a proprietary index of U.S. dollar-denominated high-yield corporate bonds. The fund utilizes Northern Trust Investments scoring models to select debt based on fundamental business quality, market valuation, and liquidity metrics. Under normal conditions, the fund allocates at least 80% of its assets to securities within this index.
The high-yield bond sector consists of corporate debt rated below investment grade, typically offering higher interest rates to compensate investors for increased credit risk. This business model focuses on capturing value within the junk bond market by identifying issuers with stronger balance sheets relative to their current market pricing. Investors often use these instruments to generate income or diversify fixed-income portfolios beyond government treasuries.
For a more detailed breakdown of these valuation metrics, consider reviewing the data available on ValueRay. Given its inception in 2018 and its focus on the small-cap segment of the credit market, HYGV provides targeted exposure to non-investment grade debt through a systematic, factor-based approach.
