About ANZAX
Virtus Convertible Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to provide investors with a blend of capital appreciation and current income by focusing on convertible securities. These securities—such as convertible bonds, debentures, notes, and preferred stocks—offer the unique characteristic of being exchangeable into equity securities, allowing the fund to participate in the potential upside of equities while seeking to mitigate volatility typically associated with pure stock investments. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its net assets to convertible instruments, with a diverse portfolio spanning sectors including technology, financials, healthcare, consumer discretionary, and utilities. Notable holdings often include leading companies such as Wells Fargo, Boeing, and Uber Technologies. Managed by a veteran investment team, Virtus Convertible Fund Class A aims to deliver returns that capture the growth of equities with some of the risk-reducing features of fixed income. It has established itself as a significant player within the convertibles category, managing over $1.3 billion in assets and maintaining an above-average performance and risk profile according to recent independent ratings.
