HYI shareholders recently approved the fund to switch from a term structured fund to a perpetual fund. However, investors are also given the opportunity to participate in a tender offer at 100% of NAV for 100% of outstanding shares. That effectively gives investors the same opportunity to cash out of the fund at NAV that a liquidation would provide.

Western Asset High Yield Defined Opportunity Fund is a term-structured, non-leveraged high-yield fund that is expected to liquidate in 2025. As the termination date approaches, the HYI fund's discount becomes more important in potentially generating alpha. HYI has a distribution yield of 9.96% and offers diversified exposure with meaningful allocations outside the U.S.

Western Asset High Yield Defined Opportunity Fund is a fixed-income CEF with a term maturity date of September 30, 2025. The fund's holdings do not match the maturity profile, leading to significant market risk as it approaches liquidation. Performance of HYI is in line with ETF peers, but with higher fees and risks, investors are advised to switch to other options.

Western Asset High Yield Defined Opportunity Fund is a closed-end fund scheduled to be liquidated in 18 months. The fund's current yield of 9.52% compares well to similar options in the market. HYI's performance has been disappointing, but investors purchasing it today should realize some gains upon liquidation unless interest rates do not fall at all.
