Issuer Concentration

Issuer concentration is a large portfolio exposure to one issuer or related group.

Why this matters to income investors

A single borrower or issuer failure can have an outsized effect on income.

How to use issuer concentration in your research

Look at the specific exposure and the period measured. Ask whether the risk could reduce cash income, force a sale, or cause several holdings to weaken together; a single summary statistic cannot answer that alone.
