The PGIM High Yield Bond Fund ( ISD ) is a closed-end fund that investors can purchase as a method of obtaining a very high level of income from the assets in their portfolios. The fund certainly does fairly well at the provision of income, as it boasts an 8.70% yield at the current share price. This is substantially higher than the yield of any of the major domestic or global bond indices:
