Description: HFRO Highland Opportunities October 24, 2025

Highland Opportunities and Income Fund (NYSE: HFRO) is a U.S.-based closed-end fund that primarily invests in senior secured bank loans, positioning itself in the floating-rate “bank loan” style segment. Its mandate focuses on generating current income while preserving capital through exposure to diversified credit assets that typically reset with short-term interest rates.

Key market data (as of Q3 2024) that help gauge HFRO’s risk-return profile include an average portfolio yield of roughly 7.2 % and a weighted-average credit rating of B-/BB+, indicating a tilt toward high-yield, lower-middle-market borrowers. The fund’s expense ratio sits near 1.45 % and its net asset value (NAV) has trended within a 5-10 % discount to market price, reflecting the broader discount-to-NAV dynamics common in closed-end loan funds. Economic drivers such as the Federal Reserve’s policy rate trajectory and the health of the U.S. leveraged loan market (e.g., issuance volumes and default rates) are material to HFRO’s performance.
