John Hancock Diversified Income Fund

John Hancock Diversified Income Fund is a closed-end investment fund focused on delivering a combination of current income, capital gains, and long-term capital appreciation. Managed by John Hancock Investment Management LLC and subadvised by Wellington Management Company LLP, the fund primarily allocates at least 80% of its assets to equity and equity-related securities, investing across a broad spectrum of sectors and company sizes. Its investment approach is further diversified through the use of derivatives such as options and equity futures, aiming to enhance income generation and manage risk. The fund implements a managed distribution plan, providing shareholders with regular quarterly distributions, which may consist of net investment income, realized capital gains, and potentially return of capital. Recognized for its emphasis on yield, the fund plays a role in providing diversified income streams for investors seeking exposure to global equities and a disciplined distribution policy within the closed-end fund market.
