8 hours ago 5

LOS ANGELES, March 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Payden & Rygel, one of the largest privately-held global investment advisory firms, today announced that the Payden California Municipal Social Impact Fund (PYCRX) is a LSEG Lipper Fund Awards United States 2025 winner.

"The 2025 LSEG Lipper Fund Awards are recognizing perhaps the most dramatic three-year period that the markets have seen in decades. Fund managers being recognized have steered their investors through a pandemic, a mild recession, rising geopolitical risks, skyrocketing inflation, and dramatic central bank intervention,” said Otto Christian Kober, Head of Lipper Research, LSEG Data & Analytics. "Whether you've been investing for just the past 15 years and have seen only the easy money environment following the Financial Crisis or been an investor for 50 years and feel as if you've seen it all, there is no way to have foreseen the range of fundamental and non-financial factors that impacted the markets these past few years.

"We applaud the 2025 LSEG Lipper Fund Award winners such as Payden & Rygel for delivering outperformance and the accompanying comfort of consistency to investors' portfolios through a cross-current of global market disruptions,” he added.

PYCRX was recognized in the California Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds category as the best fund over ten-years. The fund generally invests in intermediate-maturity municipal bonds that are exempt from Federal, state, and local taxes for California residents. The fund seeks to provide attractive current income while preserving capital. Holdings are diversified across sectors and issuers.

Social Impact Investing Risk: The Fund's policy of investing in municipal securities for which, in the Adviser's opinion, the proceeds raised are used consistent with positive social and/or environmental practices and outcomes could cause the Fund to perform differently compared to other mutual funds that do not have such a policy. The factors that the Adviser considers in evaluating an investment's positive social and/or environmental benefits are part of a proprietary security selection methodology and may change over time. There are differences in interpretations of what it means to promote positive social and/or environmental benefits. While the Adviser believes its definitions are reasonable, the portfolio decisions it makes may differ with others' views.
