- Business
- Delaware Investments Dividend and Income Fund, Inc. (DDF) operates as a diversified closed-end management investment company focused on providing high current income with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. The fund invests at least 65% of its total assets in income-generating equity securities across any market capitalization, including dividend-paying common stocks, convertible securities, preferred stocks, and other equity-related securities; up to 25% may include real estate investment trusts and real estate operating companies; and up to 35% in nonconvertible debt securities, primarily high-yield corporate bonds. It primarily targets dividend-paying value stocks of large-cap companies across diversified U.S. equity sectors, benchmarking performance against the S&P 500 Index and the Lipper Closed-End Income and Preferred Stock Funds Average. Formed on March 26, 1993, and domiciled in the United States with management by Delaware Management Company, a subsidiary of Macquarie Asset Management, the fund historically traded on the NYSE under the ticker DDF. In a major strategic change, shareholders approved the reorganization of the fund into abrdn Global Dynamic Dividend Fund (AGD) on November 30, 2022, with completion on March 10, 2023; this involved an asset acquisition by AGD, after which DDF distributed a final $0.202 per share payout including capital gains and return of capital, followed by delisting from the NYSE and dissolution.
