C000049011 Investment Objective and Strategy

BMO Short-Term Income Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Bmo Funds, Inc..

Investment objective

To maximize total return consistent with current income.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities. Fund investments include corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities with a minimum rating in the lowest investment grade category (i.e., rated BBB by Standard & Poors or Baa by Moodys Investors Service, or higher, or unrated and considered by the Adviser to be comparable in quality) at the time of purchase and bank instruments, repurchase agreements, and U.S. government securities. The Adviser changes the Funds weightings in these fixed income asset classes as it deems appropriate and uses macroeconomic, credit, and market analysis to select portfolio securities. The Fund normally maintains an average dollar-weighted effective maturity of six months to three years. Effective maturity takes into account the possibility that a bond may have prepayments or may be called by the issuer before its stated maturity date.

From time to time, the Fund maintains a portion of its assets in cash. The Fund may increase its cash holdings in response to market conditions or in the event attractive investment opportunities are not available.
