Clough Global Dividend & Income Fund

Clough Global Dividend and Income Fund is a closed-end fund incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. Launched and managed by Clough Capital Partners L.P., the fund operates as a balanced mutual fund investing across public equity and fixed income markets globally. The fund's investment mandate combines a diversified approach to generating current income and capital appreciation through exposure to securities spanning multiple sectors and geographies.

The fund's portfolio divides between equity and fixed income segments. On the equity side, it targets small-cap and mid-cap companies using fundamental analysis and bottom-up stock selection. The fixed income portion allocates to corporate and sovereign debt instruments with maturities ranging from 30 days to over 30 years. Investment decisions employ a theme-oriented approach focusing on industry consolidation trends, technological disruption, supply shortages resulting from historical under-investment, and regulatory or economic cycle shifts. The fund accesses non-U.S. markets primarily through liquid securities and depositary receipts.

As a closed-end fund structure, GLV generates revenue through management fees charged to investors rather than traditional product sales. The fund maintains a global investment scope with thematic research processes identifying shortage-driven opportunities, geographic growth catalysts, and credit market dislocations. The fund was renamed from Clough Global Allocation Fund to reflect its refined focus on dividend and income generation.
