US Large Cap Value

Amundi US Dividend Equity Strategy1

Our Amundi US Dividend Equity Strategy invests at least 80% of its assets in income producing US equity securities. The Strategy also may invest up to 20% of its assets in debt securities-most of which are expected to be converted into common stocks. The Strategy seeks securities selling at a discount to their underlying values and then holds these securities until the market values reflect their intrinsic values. 

¹Effective September 30, 2022, “Pioneer” has been removed from the former “Amundi Pioneer” strategy name.

The portfolio management team looks for well-established companies that have shown or produced exemplary dividend growth over the long term and commitment to continuing potential dividend payments.
