About HQISX

Hartford Equity Income Fund Class R4 is a mutual fund specializing in large-cap value equities, aiming to provide a high level of current income while pursuing long-term capital growth. The fund implements a dividend-focused approach, targeting high-quality companies with strong and sustainable dividend histories. It adopts a value investing style, seeking temporarily undervalued large U.S. companies that offer stable dividends and potential for capital appreciation. Managed by an experienced team at Wellington Management, the fund’s portfolio is broadly diversified across sectors, predominantly holding U.S. equities but with a small allocation to foreign stocks. Notable holdings frequently include leading names in the financial, healthcare, and energy sectors. With a history dating back to 2003, the fund is recognized for its valuation discipline and emphasis on companies with below-average valuations, often selecting those that may be temporarily out of favor with the market. This fund plays a significant role for investors seeking a blend of income and value exposure within the large-cap segment of the equity market.
