Bill Gross, who runs the world’s biggest debt fund at Pacific Investment Management Co., increased holdings of Treasuries and bonds outside the U.S. last month while cutting money-market securities.

Gross boosted his $243 billion Total Return Fund’s investment in U.S. government securities to 8 percent of assets in June from 5 percent in May, according to Newport Beach, California-based Pimco’s website. Bonds in developed markets outside the U.S. rose to 13 percent of holdings from 10 percent. Cash and equivalents dropped to 29 percent from 35 percent.
