The Monarch Ambassador Income Index is designed to measure the performance of an investable universe of fixed income securities of varying credit quality and duration, including corporate bonds, lower-quality bonds, known as “high yield” or “junk” bonds, treasury bonds, municipal bonds, mortgage backed securities and convertible bonds, that provide broad exposure to the U.S. and global bond market. The Index’s constituents are weighted differently throughout the phases of the economic cycle in an effort to maximize risk-adjusted returns.
