Summary

MFS Diversified Income has appealing parts coupled with an unclear approach to allocating between them. Its six specialist teams have generally added value through security selection, yet the top-level allocation process has not shown a repeatable edge. The result is a portfolio whose strongest attributes reside in the underlying sleeves rather than in the way they are combined.
