Convertible bonds offer yield as fixed-income investments but also potential upside through conversion into common stock. Higher interest rates are leading to more issuances of convertibles by higher-rated companies. Bancroft fund and ellsworth growth and income fund offer diversified exposure to convertible debt investments.

BCV: Stay On The Sidelines Until The Right Market Conditions
The bancroft fund is a closed-end fund that focuses on convertible securities for current income and capital appreciation. Current market conditions are not conducive for convertible bonds as both equity and fixed income markets remain in bear markets. The fund pays an attractive 8.9% forward distribution yield. The bcv fund is a convertibles-focused cef paying an 8.5% yield. I believe convertible bond funds like bcv will struggle until small-cap companies return to positive returns.
