LGI: A NAV-Driven Equity CEF, Not An Income Fund

Lazard Global Total Return and Income Fund is a leveraged, global equity-driven CEF with distributions primarily from NAV growth and capital gains. LGI's 10% distribution rate is not income-driven; payouts fluctuate with market conditions and are often funded by realized gains rather than net investment income. Despite strong long-term NAV performance, LGI trades at a 5.64% discount due to market skepticism about equity-driven distributions.

LGI's Global Mandate Fails To Deliver Growth Or Defense Consistently

Lazard Global Total Return and Income Fund earns a Hold rating due to underperformance versus SPY and unreliable growth alpha. LGI's active strategy fails to deliver consistent total return or defensive ballast, with payouts heavily reliant on capital appreciation. Despite double-digit yields and some tax advantages, LGI's income distributions pressure NAV and show significant return of capital in weak markets.
