Schwab Short-Term Bond Index Fund (SWSBX) Diversifiers

The Schwab Short-Term Bond Index Fund (SWSBX) aims to closely follow the performance, before expenses and fees, of the Bloomberg US Government/Credit 1-5 Year Index. The index comprises U.S. investment-grade bonds such as U.S. Treasury bonds, government-related bonds, and corporate bonds with maturities ranging between 1-5 years. The index is a benchmark that measures the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated bonds with a maturity of at least one year and less than five years. The fund will invest at least 90% of its net assets in securities that are part of the index.
