WDI·NYSE·Unknown·CIK 0001819559

Western Asset Diversified Income Fund (NYSE: WDI) is a diversified, closed-end management investment company that aims to provide high current income as its primary investment objective and capital appreciation as a secondary objective. Established on July 27, 2020, and headquartered in New York, the fund is part of the Western Asset fund family, a subsidiary of Franklin Templeton. Under normal market conditions, the fund invests across various fixed income sectors and securities, employing a diversified portfolio approach rather than operating a commercial business with products or services. Its investment strategy involves dynamically rotating investments into sectors and securities believed to be undervalued with attractive return profiles, and away from those considered overvalued. The fund may invest in a wide range of fixed income securities, including investment grade and high yield corporate debt, senior loans, agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, government debt (including U.S. government obligations), collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), asset-backed securities, private debt, and whole real estate loans. WDI's portfolio is highly diversified, with approximately 420 holdings, primarily consisting of BB- and B-rated debt, and utilizes modest leverage with collateral-backed assets. As a closed-end fund, its common shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol WDI. The fund has a market capitalization of approximately $702.9 million and approximately 51.9 million shares outstanding. As of May 18, 2026, its total investment exposure was $1,111.821 million, with total common assets of $739.748 million. The fund intends to liquidate on or about June 24, 2033.
