Investment objective & strategy
As of Jan. 28, 2026 · prospectusObjective. The City National Rochdale Fixed Income Opportunities Fund (the Fixed Income Opportunities Fund or the Fund) seeks a high level of current income.
Strategy. Under normal conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in fixed income securities, including floating rate loans. The Fund invests in both fixed rate and floating rate fixed income securities and may invest in fixed income securities of any credit rating. The Fund seeks to invest its net assets opportunistically across a broad spectrum of income yielding securities, including without limitation collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). The Fund generally expects to have exposure to high yield bonds (commonly known as junk bonds), first- and second-lien senior floating rate loans and other floating rate debt securities, bonds issued by sovereign issuers or quasi-sovereign issuers (i.e., entities that are fully guaranteed, or 100% … Under normal conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) in fixed income securities, including floating rate loans. The Fund invests in both fixed rate and floating rate fixed income securities and may invest in fixed income securities of any credit rating. The Fund seeks to invest its net assets opportunistically across a broad spectrum of income yielding securities, including without limitation collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). The Fund generally expects to have exposure to high yield bonds (commonly known as junk bonds), first- and second-lien senior floating rate loans and other floating rate debt securities, bonds issued by sovereign issuers or quasi-sovereign issuers (i.e., entities that are fully guaranteed, or 100% directly or indirectly owned or controlled, by sovereign entities), and domestic and foreign corporate bonds including asset-backed securities, bank loans, zero coupon obligations, pay-in-kind bonds and trust preferred securities. The Fund may also invest in agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. The Funds portfolio managers determine the portion of the Funds assets invested in each asset class. The Funds foreign investments generally include investments in companies that are operating principally in emerging market or frontier market countries. The Fund considers a company to be operating principally in an emerging market or frontier market if (i) the company is incorporated or has its principal business activities in such a market or (ii) the company derives 50% or more of its revenues from, or has 50% or more of its assets in, such a market. The Fund considers a country to be an emerging market country if it has been determined by an international organization, such as the World Bank, to have a low to middle income economy. The Fund considers a country to be a frontier market country if it is included in the MSCI Frontier Markets Index. The Funds foreign investments may be denominated in U.S. dollars or in local currencies. The Fund may also invest in other income-producing securities consisting of preferred stocks, high dividend paying stocks, securities issued by other investment companies (including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and money market funds), and money market instruments. Up to 100% of the Funds assets may be held in instruments that are rated below investment grade by either by Standard & Poors Ratings Services (Standard & Poors) or Moodys Investors Service, Inc. (Moodys), or in unrated securities determined by RBC Rochdale, LLC (the Adviser), the Funds investment adviser, or a Fund sub-adviser to be of equal quality. Although the Adviser and sub-advisers may consider credit ratings in selecting investments for the Fund, the Adviser and the sub-advisers generally base their investment decisions for a particular instrument primarily on their own credit analyses and not on a credit rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The Adviser and sub-advisers generally consider, among other things, the issuers financial resources and operating history, its sensitivity to economic conditions and trends, its debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements, and relative values based on anticipated cash flow, interest and asset coverage. The Fund may invest in income producing securities and other instruments without regard to the maturity of any instrument or the average maturity or duration of the Fund as a whole. In selecting the Funds investments, the Adviser or the relevant sub-adviser analyzes an issuers financial condition, business product strength, competitive position and management experience. The Fund may continue to own a security as long as the dividend or interest yields satisfy the Funds goal, the credit quality meets the Advisers or sub-advisers fundamental criteria and the Adviser or sub-adviser believes the valuation is attractive and industry trends remain favorable. Generally, in determining whether to sell a security, the Adviser or relevant sub-adviser uses the same type of analysis that it uses when buying securities to determine whether the security continues to be a desirable investment for the Fund, including consideration of the securitys current credit quality. The Adviser or sub-adviser may also sell a security to reduce the Funds holding in that security, to take advantage of what it believes are more attractive investment opportunities or to raise cash.
