TCW Strategic Income Fund Announces Monthly Distribution

Key Terms

closed-end fund financial

A closed-end fund is a pool of money collected from many investors to buy a diversified mix of stocks, bonds, or other assets, and it is managed by professionals. Unlike some investment options, its shares are bought and sold on stock exchanges at prices determined by supply and demand, which can be above or below the fund's actual value. This structure allows investors to buy or sell shares easily, but the value may fluctuate based on market conditions.

net investment income financial

Net investment income is the money an investor or fund actually keeps from its investments after subtracting the costs of running those investments (like management fees, interest, and losses). Think of it as your paycheck from owning assets: gross returns minus the bills needed to earn them. Investors watch it because it shows how profitable the investment activities are, influences dividend payouts and cash available for growth, and helps compare true performance across funds or companies.

The closed-end fund declared its February 2026 monthly distribution

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The TCW Group, a leading global investment firm, announced today that the TCW Strategic Income Fund, Inc. (NYSE: TSI) has declared a monthly distribution of $0.0217 per share payable on February 27, 2026, to shareholders of record on February 12, 2026.
