In plain English
PIMCO Advantage US Short-Term High Yield Corporate Bond UCITS ETF Accum Hedged EUR is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from PIMCO, launched in 2017.
It tracks the ICE BofA US High Yield Constrained (0-5 Y).
You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share.
Its ongoing charge is 0.6% a year — about £60 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you.
Income from its investments is reinvested inside the fund, so it shows up as a rising price rather than cash paid to you.
It is currency-hedged to euros, not to the pound: it aims to remove most of the effect of exchange-rate moves against euros, so a holder who counts in pounds still has currency risk.
Corporate & other bonds: Loans to companies and other borrowers, which usually pay more interest than government bonds in exchange for more risk.
