Eaton Vance Ltd Duration Income Fund belongs to the Finance & Banking sector. Filings by its managers are published through SEC (Form 4). The last twelve months, up to 20 October 2026, brought 1 filing signed by 1 insider.
None of the filings is a plain purchase or sale on the open market; they cover grants, option exercises and other movements. Compensation-driven entries like these are tracked, but they say little about how insiders judge the share price.

Entry is the close on the day after publication, the first price a reader could act on. Prices in the listing currency. Past moves are not a forecast.
This score ranks the purchase within its own market. A position size is suggested only on the venues of the backtested strategy universe; elsewhere, signals stay on watch. Not investment advice.

Eaton Vance Limited Duration Income Fund (NYSE American: EVV) is a U.S.-listed closed-end fund designed to deliver high current income through a portfolio built around limited-duration fixed-income securities. For francophone investors, EVV should be viewed primarily as a listed bond-income vehicle rather than an operating company. It is domiciled in the United States and trades on NYSE American, giving public-market access to an actively managed fixed-income strategy focused on income generation and interest-rate risk control.
EVV sits within the Eaton Vance franchise, a long-established American asset-management brand now part of Morgan Stanley Investment Management. Eaton Vance has a long history in taxable fixed income, municipal bonds, and closed-end funds. In that context, EVV’s mandate is centered on producing high current income while keeping portfolio duration relatively constrained compared with longer-duration bond funds. The strategy is intended to reduce sensitivity to interest-rate moves, although it still remains exposed to the usual fixed-income variables: rates, credit spreads, defaults, and market liquidity.
From a business-model perspective, the fund is a professionally managed pooled investment product, not an industrial or consumer company. Its main “products” are portfolio income, periodic distributions, and exposure to a diversified mix of debt instruments. Depending on market conditions and portfolio construction, the fund may invest across investment-grade bonds, lower-rated credit, and other income-producing fixed-income instruments. For investors, the appeal is the combination of listed-fund liquidity, active management, and potentially attractive distribution yield. The trade-off is that closed-end funds can experience share-price discounts or premiums to net asset value, and leverage and credit exposure can amplify volatility.
In terms of competitive positioning, EVV participates in a crowded U.S. closed-end fund universe where managers compete on yield, distribution stability, risk management, and access to differentiated credit opportunities. Its Eaton Vance heritage and Morgan Stanley platform support distribution, research, and portfolio-management resources, which are important differentiators in this segment. The fund’s geographic footprint is mainly the United States, though the underlying bond portfolio can include non-U.S. issuers or exposures depending on the manager’s allocation decisions.
Recent company-specific developments show that EVV remains actively managed and responsive to capital-structure issues. In April 2026, a SEC filing announced that the board authorized a voluntary tender offer for up to 100% of the fund’s outstanding auction preferred shares, at a price set at 98% of liquidation preference plus accrued dividends. In October 2025, EVV also appeared in an Eaton Vance communication related to closed-end income funds and market activity. Taken together, these updates underline that EVV is a dynamic income fund whose risk profile and distribution policy can evolve with market conditions, rates, and fund-capital decisions.
