Products and Services
- Preferred Stock and Debt Securities
- Floating-Rate and Fixed-to-Floating-Rate Preferred Securities
- Corporate Debt Securities
- Convertible Securities
- Contingent Capital Securities
This product category includes both traditional preferred stocks and various forms of debt securities. The focus is on securities that provide a combination of income generation and potential tax advantages. By investing in these types of assets, the fund aims to offer investors a steady stream of income that may benefit from favorable tax treatment.
These securities are designed to offer investors income that adjusts with market interest rates. Floating-rate securities have interest payments that change over time, while fixed-to-floating-rate securities begin with a fixed interest rate that later converts to a variable rate. This flexibility can be beneficial in both rising and falling interest rate environments, providing a measure of protection against interest rate risk.
Included within this category are both fixed- and floating-rate corporate bonds. These securities represent loans made by investors to corporations, which in return, offer interest payments over a fixed term. The fund primarily targets securities that are rated BBB- or above by Standard & Poor’s, focusing on investment-grade corporate debt that offers a balance between risk and return.
Convertible securities are hybrid instruments that offer the potential for income along with the option to convert into a predetermined number of shares of the issuer's common stock. This feature provides an upside potential in the form of equity participation while also offering income generation and risk reduction benefits typical of fixed income investments.
Also known as "CoCos," these are debt instruments that may be converted into equity or see their principal written down upon the occurrence of certain triggers, typically related to the financial health of the issuing entity. By investing in contingent capital securities rated BBB- or above, the fund seeks to add a layer of security and potential for profit in scenarios of issuer distress, while also contributing to the fund's income generation objectives.
