2025-10-13 12:00:06 ET
The abrdn Asia-Pacific Income Fund Inc ( FAX ) is a rather interesting closed-end fund, or CEF, that many investors may wish to consider purchasing as a potential source of income. This fund has historically been one of the highest-yielding income-focused funds around, as it boasts a 12.65% yield at the current market price. As we can see here, that is substantially higher than the yields of just about any major domestic or international broad-market bond index in the market:
Index/ETF | Current Yield |
Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index ( AGG ) | 3.82% |
Bloomberg High Yield Very Liquid Index ( JNK ) | 6.63% |
Vanguard Total World Bond ETF ( BNDW ) | 4.03% |
Vanguard Total International Bond Index Fund ETF Shares ( BNDX ) | 4.34% |
J.P. Morgan EMBI Global Core Index ( EMB ) | 5.13% |
