FIUVX Investment Objective and Strategy
Delaware Equity Income Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Delaware Group Equity Funds IV.
Investment objective
Delaware Equity Income Fund seeks total return.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, primarily in companies that the Fund believes are attractive in the market based on their view of long term potential. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (including any borrowings for investment purposes) in equities (80% policy). For purposes of this 80% policy, equities may include common stock, preferred stock, equity-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and instruments that are convertible into common stock, or other instruments that represent an equity position in an issuer. The Fund seeks to generate income by investing primarily in dividend paying companies. The Fund may also own convertible securities. Convertible securities are usually preferred stocks or corporate bonds that can be exchanged for a set number of shares of common stock at a predetermined price.
These securities offer higher appreciation potential than nonconvertible bonds and greater income potential than nonconvertible preferred stocks. The Fund may also invest in real estate investment trusts (REITs) and income-generating equity securities. REITs are pooled investment vehicles that invest primarily in income-producing real estate or real estate-related loans or interests. Macquarie Investment Management Global Limited (MIMGL), an affiliate of the Fund's investment manager, Delaware Management Company (Manager), serves as the Funds sub-advisor and manages the Funds assets. Using a systematic bottom-up approach, the Fund seeks to select securities that have above-average yields coupled with a demonstrated business quality, as seen through superior profitability, balance sheet strength, earnings stability and corporate sustainability.
Stocks also need to have reasonable company valuations relative to their current growth prospects, and their peer group. All of these factors give insight into the outlook for a company, and identify companies poised for sustainable growth. Sustainable growth, if it occurs, may result in price appreciation for the companys stock.
