About EVIFX

Eaton Vance Balanced Fund Class A is a moderate allocation mutual fund that seeks to provide both current income and long-term capital growth. The fund achieves this goal by investing in a diversified mix of common stocks and fixed-income securities, typically allocating between 50% and 75% of its assets to equities and the remainder to bonds. Its equity strategy is based on fundamental, research-driven analysis of companies across a broad range of market capitalizations, while fixed-income investments are chosen using a relative value framework to determine the attractiveness of government, corporate, and mortgage-backed securities. This balanced approach provides exposure to multiple segments of the financial markets, making the fund suitable for investors seeking diversification and the dual potential of income and growth within a single professionally managed portfolio. The fund is managed by an experienced team and has a long track record, with inception dating back to 1932. Income is distributed quarterly, and the fund is considered a core holding in many diversified investment strategies due to its focus on both stability and appreciation.
