About SVALX

Federated Hermes Strategic Value Dividend Fund Class R6 is an open-end mutual fund that seeks to generate both income and long-term capital appreciation. This fund primarily invests in high dividend-paying common stocks, focusing on companies with potential for dividend growth. It targets a dividend yield that is higher than the broad equity market, appealing to investors seeking steady income alongside capital growth. The fund employs a large value investment style, allocating assets to established, typically large-cap companies with attractive valuation metrics within sectors such as healthcare, energy, consumer defensive, and communication services. Managed by a seasoned team, the fund maintains a diversified portfolio—recently holding around 45 securities—and allocates approximately a fifth of its assets to foreign equities. Monthly dividend distributions, a competitive expense ratio, and risk management aimed at protecting capital in volatile market conditions further distinguish the fund. As part of Federated Hermes’ suite of retirement share class offerings, it is designed for long-term investors and retirement plans seeking reliable distributions and value-oriented equity exposure in their portfolios.
