Artisan Partners announced that it launched the Artisan Value Income Fund. The Fund is managed by the Artisan Partners U.S. Value Team, led by Portfolio Managers Thomas Reynolds, Daniel Kane and Craig Inman. In managing the Value Income Fund, they will leverage the same investment philosophy and process as utilized by the U.S. Value team across the Artisan Value and Artisan Mid Cap Value Funds; however, the Value Income Fund will emphasize income in addition to capital appreciation.
Regarding the new fund, Mr. Reynolds said, “Investors are increasingly seeking risk-aware equity income investments due to concerns of rising interest rates, and we believe the Value Income Strategy can meet that need in a differentiated fashion. We will leverage the team’s time-tested process and proven research resources to construct a portfolio that strikes a balance between income production and capital appreciation in an opportunistic, unconventional manner.”
