MFS Total Return applies a disciplined but conventional structure to construct a core balanced strategy that diversifies through a largely static mix of roughly 60% equities and 40% fixed income. The strategy is implemented by an experienced management team with extensive supporting resources, but its distinctiveness rests mostly on the execution of its underlying sleeves rather than a differentiated asset allocation framework.
