Virtus Dividend, Interest & Premium Strategy Fund is a diversified closed-end fund designed to deliver current income and gains, with a secondary focus on long-term capital appreciation. The fund primarily allocates its assets to a blend of dividend-paying U.S. equities and income-producing convertible securities, generally investing about 75% in equities and 25% in convertibles. To enhance distributable income, the fund employs a systematic strategy of writing covered call options on equity holdings, aiming to capture option premiums in addition to dividends and interest. This multi-pronged approach targets a steady cash flow for shareholders, often appealing to income-focused investors. The fund’s portfolio construction emphasizes quality companies with consistent financial performance and shareholder yield, and typically includes American depositary receipts (ADRs) to broaden diversification. Managed by Virtus Investment Advisers with the support of specialist subadvisers, it operates under a managed distribution plan, striving to maintain consistent payouts while actively managing equity, convertible, and options exposure to balance risk and opportunity within the equities income sector.
