Overview
Investment Approach
BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund, Inc.’s (FRA) (the 'Fund') investment objective is to provide shareholders with high current income and
such preservation of capital as is consistent with investment in a diversified, leveraged portfolio consisting primarily of floating rate debt securities and
instruments. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in floating rate
debt securities, including floating or variable rate debt securities that pay interest at rates that adjust whenever a specified interest rate changes and/or
which reset on predetermined dates (such as the last day of a month or calendar quarter). The Fund invests a substantial portion of its investments in
floating rate debt securities consisting of secured or unsecured senior floating rate loans that are rated below investment grade. The Fund may invest
directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.
No assurance can be given that the Fund's investment objective will be achieved.
