AHYDX Investment Objective and Strategy

High-Yield Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by American Century Investment Trust.

Investment objective

The fund seeks high current income.

Principal investment strategy

The fund invests in high-yield corporate bonds and other debt securities with an emphasis on securities that are rated below investment-grade. A high-yield security, or junk bond, is one that has been rated below the four highest categories used by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or determined by the investment advisor to be of similar quality. Under normal market conditions, the portfolio managers will maintain at least 80% of the funds net assets in high-yield corporate bonds and other debt instruments (including income-producing convertible and preferred securities, as well as loan participations and loan assignments). The remaining assets may be invested in common stocks or other equity-related securities. The fund may invest in new issuances of high yield securities, distressed securities and restricted or illiquid securities, including Rule 144A securities.

Up to 40% of the funds total assets may be invested in fixed-income obligations of foreign issuers. Under normal market conditions, the fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in short-term money market instruments and U.S. government securities. The fund has no average maturity limitations, but it typically invests in intermediate-term and long-term debt securities. The fund also may invest in derivative instruments such as options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, and swap agreements (including, but not limited to, credit default swap agreements), or in mortgage- or asset-backed securities, provided that such investments are in keeping with the funds investment objective. To determine whether to buy or sell a security, the portfolio managers consider, among other things, various fund requirements and standards, along with economic conditions, alternative investments and interest rates.
