About HQIIX

Hartford Equity Income Fund Class I is a mutual fund specializing in large-cap value equity investments. Its primary objective is to seek a high level of current income while maintaining a focus on capital growth. Managed by experienced portfolio managers and sub-advised by Wellington Management, the fund employs a value investing approach, targeting quality companies with sustainable, growing dividends, and attractive valuations. Notably, the fund emphasizes stocks that are temporarily out of favor but maintain strong fundamentals, favoring firms with market capitalizations above $2 billion. The portfolio spans diverse sectors, with significant allocations in financials, healthcare, energy, and utilities, and includes holdings such as Bank of America, Johnson & Johnson, and UnitedHealth Group. Most of the portfolio is invested in U.S. equities, but there is a modest allocation to foreign equities as well. The fund is intended for investors seeking consistent dividend income alongside equity market exposure, and it is benchmarked against the Russell 1000 Value Index to measure its performance within the large value category.
