BCAT: Multi-Asset Fund Provides Hefty Distribution Yield (Rating Downgrade)
BCAT delivers a sizeable distribution yield thanks to its 20% managed distribution policy, which seemed to have helped the fund's discount narrow since our prior update. This policy, along with a discount management program, was implemented due to activist pressure from Saba Capital Management, but Saba has recently reduced its stake. Due to recent market volatility, the fund's share price has fallen along with its underlying portfolio; further, its discount has also widened once again, making it a more interesting choice.
