 "markdown": "The page is the record's research on the issuer — no analyst, no rating, no view.\n\n# Virtus Equity & Convertible Income Fund (NYSE: NIE) — research page\n\nAs of 2026-11-08 · us-cm-kg · record version 1\n\n## Identity and listing\n\nThe issuer is Virtus Equity & Convertible Income Fund, listed on the NYSE under ticker NIE, ISIN US92841M1018, LEI 549300E7CGC36IOELF91. Its security type is non-operating entity type (other), and its jurisdiction is United States, Massachusetts. Its segment and sector are not on the record. Its status is listed, not halted.\n\n## The disclosure read\n\nThe record holds 15 filings in the twelve months to 2026-11-08, across 15 filing days. Of these, 11 are regulatory filings, 3 are directors' dealings and 1 is an AGM/EGM filing. The median gap between filing days is 10.0 days, against a median of 6.0 days for NYSE issuers. The latest filing is dated 2026-10-08 and is a regulatory filing, 31 days before the record date. The median latency is 4.0 days for NYSE issuers. Sector peer figures are not on the record for this market.\n\n## Auditor\n\nThe auditor is not on the record, because the latest annual report cover carries no dei:AuditorName tag. The auditor's location is not on the record. The record holds no auditor changes.\n\n## Events and halts\n\nThe record holds no listing, delisting or name change lines. The domicile change is not on the record, as EDGAR states no dated change of state of incorporation on a filing line. The segment move is not on the record, as the exchanges' tier transfers are not EDGAR filings. The halt flag is listed, not halted.\n\n## Orderability\n\nThe outcome is not determinable, because the chapter's orderability section carries no client categories, so the outcome cannot name its client category. The rule version is acm-68000/us/reasonable-basis-suitability-finra-rule-2111/r1, and the chapter is as of 2026-11-04.\n\n## Coverage\n\nNo research houses were found on the issuer's investor-relations pages read.\n\n## Open research\n\nNo openly published research notes were found on the record.\n\n## Licensed\n\nLicensed research: none loaded. A licensed row is served only to an agent whose firm holds that licence (licensor, entitlement). No licensed row is loaded.\n\n## As-of depth\n\nThe vintage is sealed. The issuer's sealed years are 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. The market's earliest sealed date is 2021-01-04. The live record began on 2026-09-12.\n\n## Sources\n\n8 source pages are named on this page; every value above carries its own source page and read date in the numbers.\n\n- https://www.sec.gov/files/company_tickers_exchange.json (identity.exchange)\n- https://www.sec.gov/data-research/sec-markets-data/fails-deliver-data (identity.isin)\n- https://data.sec.gov/submissions/CIK0001383441.json (identity.jurisdiction)\n- https://api.gleif.org/api/v1/lei-records/549300E7CGC36IOELF91 (identity.lei)\n- https://mcp.us-cm-kg.ai/events/NYSE/NIE (the disclosure lines)\n- https://www.nasdaqtrader.com/rss.aspx?feed=tradehalts (the halt flag)\n- https://mcp.us-cm-kg.ai/book/aio.json (the orderability chapter)\n- https://mcp.us-cm-kg.ai/record/NYSE/NIE (the record)\n",
