Weitz Core Plus Income Fund Wins Two Lipper Fund Awards

2025 is the second consecutive year Weitz Core Plus Income Fund has received recognition.

Weitz Investment Management, Inc. (WIM) is pleased to announce that Weitz Core Plus Income Fund (WCPBX) received two 2025 LSEG Lipper Fund Awards for best fund in Lipper’s Core Plus Bond Funds category in both the 5- and 10- year categories – its first year eligible for the 10-year award.

Managed by co-heads of fixed income Tom Carney, CFA®, and Nolan Anderson, the fund earned the same distinction in 2024 for the 3- and 5-year periods, marking back-to-back years of recognition. This underscores the fund’s notable outperformance and reinforces Weitz’s position as a leader in active fixed income management. The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards recognize funds that deliver strong risk-adjusted returns relative to their peers. The Weitz Core Plus Income Fund continues to stand out for its disciplined and flexible approach.

“Our goal has always been to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns to our shareholders,” said Tom Carney. “We actively seek the most attractive opportunities, both within and beyond traditional indices, to deliver differentiated outcomes. This recognition is a testament to our process, our team and our commitment."

“Over the past decade, the fixed income market has evolved significantly, presenting both challenges and opportunities,” said Nolan Anderson. “Our flexible investment approach is designed to navigate these shifts effectively, helping us deliver strong risk-adjusted results for our shareholders.”
