Example explains Current Income
Current income portfolios are often created for individuals in their retirement years because steady income is needed for living expenses. Income garnered from a current income fund is derived from bond interest payments, dividends and annuity payments.
A current income portfolio is moderately conservative, as it often contains a large percentage of fixed-income securities, in addition to other assets such as blue-chip stocks and annuities. A current income portfolio can also include mutual funds within the same asset categories and strategies, such as a government bond fund and a dividend fund.
