An investor that distributes funds in their portfolio to short-term and long-term bonds to achieve high rates of returns, while also maintaining liquidity in the portfolio.

An investor that creates a bond portfolio that has a wide range of maturities and, therefore, different sensitivities to interest rates, as to reduce (but not eliminate) interest rate risk.
