The fund seeks to achieve its objectives by investing predominantly in convertible securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers alongside selected common stocks. Leveraging the hybrid characteristics of convertibles, the fund aims to capture income potential while maintaining exposure to equity market upside. The fund’s investment strategy centers on a flexible allocation between fixed-income and equity components, with portfolio managers conducting rigorous credit and equity research to identify issuers offering attractive risk-reward profiles. Geographic exposure spans developed and emerging markets, allowing the fund to capitalize on global growth opportunities and relative value across sectors. Leverage, when employed, is used to enhance yield but is managed within defined risk parameters to preserve the fund’s overall risk-return balance. Virtus Equity & Convertible Income Fund is managed by Virtus Investment Partners, a registered investment adviser headquartered in Hartford, Connecticut, with a network of research and trading professionals across major U.S. financial centers. The fund team is supported by dedicated convertible research analysts and equity strategists who monitor market developments and issuer fundamentals.

NIE Stock News HeadlinesVirtus Equity & Convertible Income Fund (NYSE:NIE) Sees Significant Decline in Short InterestSeptember 13 at 2:40 AM | americanbankingnews.comThis ‘Conservative’ Fund Soared 253%. It’s Still CheapSeptember 8, 2026 | forbes.comThe trade I’ve been waiting for since 2011Ross Givens, Director of Research at Traders Agency, is calling for gold to reach $10,000 an ounce this supercycle - and says that may be conservative. Billionaire Pierre Lassonde has argued for $19,000. Former CIA advisor Jim Rickards targets $27,000 based on a federal revaluation of the gold supply. But the bigger opportunity may not be gold itself. A 'backdoor' gold-linked asset has historically multiplied gold's move by 10x or more - returning 846%, 1,668%, 1,847%, and 1,915% in the last supercycle.September 14 at 1:00 AM | Traders Agency (Ad)NIE: This Convertible CEF Is Worth A Test DriveJuly 13, 2026 | seekingalpha.comNIE: High Tech Exposure Poses Risks For This High Yielding CEFJuly 13, 2026 | seekingalpha.comVirtus Equity & Convertible Income Fund Announces Increase to Quarterly Distribution and Discloses Sources of Distribution – Section 19(a) NoticeJune 3, 2026 | businesswire.comVirtus Convertible Fund;R6May 28, 2026 | wsj.comVirtus Income & Growth Fund Q4 2025 CommentaryMarch 30, 2026 | seekingalpha.comSee More Headlines NIE Stock Analysis - Frequently Asked Questions How have NIE shares performed this year?
