About ALABX
ALPS Balanced Opportunity Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to achieve long-term capital growth while preserving capital and providing current income. It employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy, investing in a blend of equity securities and fixed income-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This balanced approach aims to flexibly position the portfolio according to prevailing market conditions and risk factors. The fund typically allocates a significant portion of assets to both equities—such as large U.S. technology and consumer companies—and bonds or bond-related ETFs, offering diversification and income generation. Managed by an experienced team, the fund pays monthly distributions and is benchmarked against a composite of major U.S. equity and bond indices. Its role in the financial market is to serve investors seeking a disciplined, actively managed solution that addresses both growth and income objectives through broad sector exposure and risk control techniques.
