About Cohen & Steers Select Preferred & Income Fund, Inc.

Cohen & Steers Select Preferred & Income Fund, Inc. (PSF) is a U.S.-listed closed-end fund traded on the NYSE/NASDAQ in the United States. For international investors, it is best understood as a specialized income vehicle within the broader Cohen & Steers platform, a U.S. asset manager founded in 1986 and headquartered in New York. Cohen & Steers built its reputation first in listed real assets and has since become a recognized specialist in alternative income strategies, including preferred securities and income-oriented solutions. ([cohenandsteers.com](https://www.cohenandsteers.com/news/cohen-steers-announces-u-s-wealth-leadership-appointments/?utm_source=openai)) PSF’s stated objective is to seek total return through high current income and capital appreciation, primarily by investing in preferred and debt securities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. companies. In practical terms, the fund offers exposure to preferred securities, a hybrid part of the capital structure that sits between common equity and senior debt. That positioning can make the strategy attractive for yield-seeking investors, but it also means returns are influenced by interest-rate sensitivity, issuer credit quality, sector composition, and the broader financing environment. ([cohenandsteers.com](https://www.cohenandsteers.com/funds/preferred-securities-and-income-fund/?utm_source=openai)) From a competitive standpoint, PSF benefits from being managed by a firm with deep expertise in preferreds rather than by a generalist asset manager. Cohen & Steers actively highlights the preferred securities market as a large institutional universe and emphasizes the diversification potential of preferreds versus traditional stocks and bonds. That specialization is an important differentiator, especially for investors looking for a dedicated income sleeve with a disciplined focus on a less crowded segment of public markets. ([cohenandsteers.com](https://www.cohenandsteers.com/funds/preferred-securities-and-income-fund/?utm_source=openai)) The fund’s geographic footprint is principally U.S.-based, but its mandate allows investment in securities issued by both U.S. and non-U.S. companies. At the manager level, Cohen & Steers maintains a global office network spanning New York, London, Dublin, Hong Kong, Tokyo, and Singapore, which supports research coverage and international market access. The parent company’s headquarters are in New York City, reinforcing the fund’s U.S. market identity while still offering cross-border flexibility in portfolio construction. ([cohenandsteers.com](https://www.cohenandsteers.com/news/cohen-steers-announces-u-s-wealth-leadership-appointments/?utm_source=openai)) Recent developments remain centered on the preferred securities franchise. In 2025, Cohen & Steers launched a new UCITS short-duration preferred income fund, underscoring continued demand for the asset class and the firm’s commitment to extending its preferreds platform globally. For PSF specifically, recent company communications have focused on distributions, including a January 2026 notice describing a monthly payout and a small return-of-capital component. That reinforces PSF’s role as a distribution-oriented fund where dividend policy and portfolio income generation are key investor considerations.
