About Cohen & Steers Ltd Duration Preferred & Income Fund, Inc.

Cohen & Steers Ltd Duration Preferred & Income Fund, Inc. (ticker: LDP) is a U.S.-listed closed-end fund traded on the NYSE in the United States. It should be viewed less as an operating company and more as a specialized listed investment vehicle. Its core mandate is to seek high current income through investment in preferred and other income securities, with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. The fund’s positioning also emphasizes reduced interest-rate sensitivity through lower-duration investments, which differentiates it from more rate-sensitive preferred-income strategies. ([cohenandsteers.com](https://www.cohenandsteers.com/funds/limited-duration-preferred-and-income-fund/?utm_source=openai)) The fund was incorporated in Maryland on May 1, 2012, and is registered as a diversified closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. It sits within the broader Cohen & Steers platform, a New York-based asset manager founded in the 1980s and widely recognized for expertise in real assets and alternative income. Cohen & Steers operates globally and has built a long-standing franchise in preferred securities, REITs and other income-oriented strategies.

These instruments sit between senior debt and common equity in the capital structure, typically offering higher income potential than many comparable bonds, while also carrying equity-like and credit-related risks. Cohen & Steers positions the strategy as a way to access a broad preferred market, diversify across issuers and sectors, and manage duration more conservatively than traditional preferred funds. The approach is relevant in periods when investors want income but remain sensitive to rate volatility.

Its key “products” are the fund’s income stream and total-return profile, delivered through a diversified allocation to preferred securities and related income instruments. The latest fund materials show an emphasis on high current income, lower-duration positioning and access to a broad institutional preferred market, including securities from financial issuers and other sectors. ([cohenandsteers.com](https://www.cohenandsteers.com/funds/limited-duration-preferred-and-income-fund/?utm_source=openai)) Recent developments have remained supportive for the franchise. In 2025 and early 2026, Cohen & Steers continued expanding its preferred-income platform with new short-duration preferred strategies and updated fund materials across the product suite, reinforcing the firm’s commitment to this segment. LDP’s latest annual and semi-annual filings also indicate ongoing portfolio management and a positive return backdrop in 2025. For international investors, the key takeaway is that LDP offers listed exposure to a specialized U.S. preferred-securities strategy, backed by a manager with a deep and established presence in alternative income.
