About WWICX
Westwood Income Opportunity Fund C Class is a mutual fund designed to provide current income as its primary objective, with a secondary goal of capital appreciation. The fund seeks to achieve these aims by investing in a diversified portfolio of securities, notably those issued by companies demonstrating strong and improving cash flows that are capable of sustaining or increasing income distributions. Its approach typically emphasizes a blend of fixed income and equity assets, balancing stability with moderate growth potential. This strategy positions the fund within the "Allocation – Moderately Conservative" category, making it suitable for investors seeking a mix of income generation and capital preservation with less risk than more aggressive allocation funds. The fund's performance is benchmarked against a composite of 60% Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and 40% S&P 500 Index, reflecting its balanced asset allocation. Westwood Holdings Group, the fund advisor, manages the fund with an emphasis on mitigating downside risk while striving to deliver consistent income over time. The C Class shares structure offers features specific to retail investors, typically including a distinct fee and expense schedule.
