LEIBX Investment Objective and Strategy
Federated Equity Income Fund Inc describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Federated Hermes Strategic Dividend Growth Fund, Inc..
Investment objective
The Fund's investment objective is to provide above average income and capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
"The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in income-producing equity securities. The Fund's holdings ordinarily will be in dividend paying stocks of mid-capitalization (or ""mid-cap"") to large-capitalization (or ""large-cap"") domestic companies. The Fund's investment adviser, Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (""Adviser"") ordinarily selects dividend paying stocks that have a comparatively low volatility in share price relative to the overall equity market and which may provide relatively high dividend income and dividend growth potential, but may also select securities of companies that offer superior total return prospects. The Fund may also invest, to a lesser extent, in securities of foreign (including emerging market) issuers, and may invest in real estate investment trusts and securities of other investment companies (including exchange-traded funds).
The Fund may invest in derivative contracts and/or hybrid instruments (such as, for example, futures contracts, including S&P 500 Index futures, equity linked notes, option contracts, and swap contracts) to implement elements of its investment strategy. For example, the Fund may use derivative contracts or hybrid instruments to increase or decrease the portfolio's exposure to the investment(s) underlying the derivative or hybrid instruments in an attempt to benefit from changes in the value of the underlying investment(s). The Fund will invest its assets so that at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) are invested in income-producing equity investments. The Fund will notify shareholders at least 60 days in advance of any change in its investment policy that would permit the Fund to invest, under normal circumstances, less than 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in income-producing equity investments."
