ALLSPRING GLOBAL DIVIDEND OPPORTUNITY FUND

Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund is a closed-end equity mutual fund that invests in dividend-paying stocks across global public markets. Launched in March 2007 and domiciled in the United States, the fund is managed by Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC in partnership with Crow Point Partners, LLC and Wells Capital Management Incorporated. The fund maintains a diversified portfolio with sector emphasis on utilities, telecommunications, and energy companies, targeting investors seeking regular dividend income from international and domestic equities.

The fund's revenue is derived from management fees charged to shareholders based on assets under management. As a closed-end fund structure, it issues a fixed number of shares that trade on exchanges rather than offering continuous redemptions like open-end mutual funds. This structure allows the fund to maintain consistent capital for long-term equity positions and pursue its dividend-focused investment strategy across multiple geographic markets and sectors.
