Summary

Calvert Income's August 2025 shift to the intermediate core-plus bond Morningstar Category from the corporate-bond peer group has the potential to obscure as much as it clarifies. This strategy isn’t a perfect fit for either. It retains a stronger corporate credit focus than most core-plus rivals, but its increased allocations to noncorporate sectors in recent years—particularly government mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities—make the new classification more appropriate. Importantly, the process itself hasn't changed: The portfolio remains geared toward generating income, and corporate credit is often the most natural place to find it.
