About IVFIX
Federated Hermes International Strategic Value Dividend Fund Institutional Shares is a mutual fund focused on generating income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in dividend-paying equities of companies outside the United States. With an investment strategy anchored in fundamental analysis and a bottom-up stock selection process, the fund targets international firms recognized for their stable or growing dividend distributions. It typically maintains less than 20% exposure to U.S. stocks and emphasizes value opportunities across developed global markets, particularly in sectors such as healthcare, energy, utilities, communication services, and financial services. Aimed at institutional investors, the fund provides access to a diversified portfolio with a tilt toward mature companies offering resilient cash flows and attractive yields. Designed to offer a steady income stream, the fund serves as a source of foreign large value exposure and seeks to balance risk and reward by investing in well-established international enterprises while navigating the unique risks of currency fluctuations and varying market standards abroad.
