Income Mutual Fund – South Florida Mutual Fund Abuse and Loss FINRA Arbitration and Litigation Attorney

Income and Growth Mutual Fund Abuse, Fraud and Mismanagement Principal and Income Loss FINRA Arbitration and Litigation Attorney:

Income Mutual Funds are designed to produce current income for shareholders. Some examples of income mutual funds are municipal, international and junk bond (high-yield) funds. Several kinds of equity-oriented funds also can have income as their primary investment objectives, such as utilities income funds and equity income funds.

It is important to remember that mutual funds are offered by prospectus. The prospectus will provide all necessary information for an informed investor to make an intelligent investment decision. For example, a prospectus may contain information about such things as:

  • Disclosures relating to sales charges and shareholder privileges.  
  • Description of principal risks associated with a particular fund. Just because the fund is labeled as an income fund or an offshoot of one does not necessarily mean that fund is conservative in nature.  
  • Disclosure of the holdings in the portfolio.  
  • Who is managing the fund and what is being charged for the management thereof.  
  • How to purchase, redeem and exchange shares within the fund.  
  • How the fund shares are priced.  
  • How and under what circumstances the fund will make distributions.  
  • What are the tax consequences associated with investing in the fund.  
  • The characteristics and risks of the securities within the fund and the investment techniques associated with the management of the fund.  
  • Financial highlights associated with the fund.
