Company Description
DoubleLine Opportunistic Credit Fund (DBL) operates as a closed-end management investment company focused on opportunistic credit investments. The fund is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol DBL and has an investment objective of seeking a high total investment return by providing a high level of current income and the potential for capital appreciation.
The fund’s investment program centers on fixed-income and credit instruments. Its portfolio may include debt securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, U.S. Government securities, corporate debt, international sovereign debt, and short-term investments. This structure gives the fund exposure to multiple parts of the credit markets rather than a single borrower type or debt category.
As a closed-end fund, DBL issues common shares that trade on an exchange and may trade at prices above or below the fund’s net asset value. The fund’s market price is determined in secondary-market trading, while net asset value reflects the value of the underlying portfolio. Closed-end fund shares frequently trade at a discount to net asset value, and the fund discloses that this feature can affect shareholder outcomes.
Distributions are a recurring element of DBL’s fund structure. The Board of Trustees declares distributions and sets related declaration, ex-dividend, record, and payment dates. Fund distributions may include ordinary income, long-term capital gains, or return of capital, with the final tax characterization determined after the close of the taxable year and reported to shareholders on Form 1099-DIV.
DBL’s governance framework is administered through a Board of Trustees and shareholder voting matters. Proxy materials for the fund cover trustee elections and other matters presented to common shareholders, and DBL may participate in joint annual meeting materials with other DoubleLine closed-end funds.
