About NWALX
The Nationwide BNY Mellon Dynamic U.S. Equity Income Fund Class A is a large value mutual fund designed to provide sustainable high current income and consistent dividend growth while seeking not to sacrifice value. Managed through a high-conviction, excess-return-driven approach, the fund typically holds between 50 and 80 U.S. equities, aiming for both income generation and capital appreciation. It employs a unique dividend-oriented strategy and utilizes a derivative overlay that seeks to enhance returns by modestly leveraging exposure through S&P 500 and bond futures. The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of U.S. issuers, primarily common stocks, and maintains a diversified portfolio spanning major sectors of the U.S. market. It has demonstrated strong risk-adjusted performance and is recognized for its relatively high dividend yield, paying distributions quarterly. The fund plays a significant role in providing investors with a blend of income and growth within the equity segment of the market, serving individual and retirement-focused portfolios seeking reliable income streams alongside long-term growth potential.
