Description

The Sterling Capital Equity Income Fund Class A aims to achieve both capital appreciation and consistent income. Its investment strategy typically involves committing a substantial portion – at least 80% of its combined net assets and borrowed funds – to equity securities. Under usual market circumstances, the fund primarily targets income-generating stocks. It places a particular emphasis on common stocks issued by companies that have demonstrated a consistent record of boosting their dividend payouts over time. Furthermore, the portfolio has the flexibility to include U.S.-listed ordinary shares of international companies, which encompasses American Depositary Receipts.
