MFS Multimarket Income Trust

MFS Multimarket Income Trust is a closed-end bond fund dedicated to delivering high current income, with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. Managed by MFS Investment Management since its inception in 1987, the fund primarily allocates at least 80% of its net assets to fixed income securities. It pursues a global, multi-sector strategy, investing in U.S. government and corporate bonds, foreign government and corporate securities, mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities, as well as debt instruments issued by entities in emerging markets. The trust emphasizes diversification across geographies and credit qualities, including both investment grade and higher-yield, below-investment-grade bonds. The portfolio is managed using fundamental analysis and a bottom-up selection approach, assessing both creditworthiness and structural features. MFS Multimarket Income Trust operates under a managed distribution plan, aiming to maintain predictable income streams via regular distributions, which may be sourced from net investment income, capital gains, or return of capital. This structure makes the fund a prominent instrument for investors seeking diversified exposure to the global fixed income landscape and stable income generation within the closed-end fund market.
