Summary

Federated Hermes Corporate Bond Fund maintains its Above Average Ratings for People and Process. The team managing the strategy has plenty of experience. Brian Ruffner and Bryan Dingle, who manage the investment-grade sleeve, are veterans of Federated Hermes, and Mark Durbiano, who manages the high-yield portion, even more so, having started at the firm in 1982.
