About IVOAX

Macquarie Mid Cap Income Opportunities Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on delivering total return through a blend of current income and capital appreciation. The fund invests primarily in a carefully selected portfolio of dividend-paying mid-cap companies, emphasizing businesses with resilient capital structures and sustainable growth prospects. Its strategy targets firms with a consistent history of dividend growth and yields above 0.5%, favoring sectors such as industrials, consumer discretionary, and materials, which are viewed as having defensive characteristics and pricing power. The portfolio is notably concentrated, typically comprising around 35 equally weighted holdings, ensuring that each investment plays a meaningful role in the fund’s overall performance. This contrasts with broader mid-cap funds that may hold hundreds of stocks. Through disciplined, bottom-up research and a focus on fundamental strength, the fund seeks to balance risk and reward, aiming to weather volatility while generating a steady income stream. Managed by a seasoned team, the fund plays a significant role for investors seeking exposure to mid-cap equities with an income orientation, positioning itself as a distinctive choice within the mid-cap value category.
