Full fund details

Objective
Seeks to provide a high level of income and the potential to limit downside losses.
Strategy
Actively managed ETF investing in a laddered portfolio of OTC swap agreements replicating autocallable notes whose returns are contingent on the worst-performing of three U.S. equity reference indices (S&P 500, Russell 2000, Nasdaq-100). Pays contingent periodic income; bears full downside of the worst index only if its losses breach a pre-determined barrier.

Our take

Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.

Covered call
Warning

Covered call ETF — yield ≠ total return

The high distribution yield is not free income — it comes from selling upside via call options. Research finds these strategies systematically underperform their underlying index over full cycles, typically by 100–300 basis points per year depending on the option-overlay design. The monthly distributions make the shortfall hard to see in return summaries.
