About LMVTX
ClearBridge Value Fund Class C is a mutual fund focused on long-term capital growth through investments in equity securities, particularly emphasizing companies that are considered undervalued relative to their intrinsic worth. Managed by a team employing rigorous valuation-based research, the fund targets large U.S. companies that typically trade at lower price ratios or demonstrate slower growth rates compared to other large-cap stocks. This value-driven approach often appeals to investors seeking exposure to established firms with solid fundamentals across sectors such as healthcare, financial services, technology, energy, and utilities. The fund has the flexibility to invest up to 25% of its assets in long-term debt securities, including up to 10% in lower-rated, high-yield bonds, which can add diversification and income potential. Dividends and capital gains are distributed on an annual basis. As a large-value fund, ClearBridge Value Fund Class C plays a vital role in diversified portfolios by offering access to mature, cost-effective companies that may provide stability and resilience through various market cycles.
