Fund Description

The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund ("ETF") that seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in below-investment-grade (commonly known as "junk" or "high yield") fixed-income securities, such as bonds and bank loans. "Below investment grade" securities are rated Ba1 or lower by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and BB+ or lower by S&P Global Ratings. If a security has been rated by only one of the rating agencies, that rating will determine the security's rating; if the security is rated differently by the rating agencies, the highest rating will be used; and if the security has not been rated by either of the rating agencies, those selecting such investments will determine the security's quality. To select investments for the Fund, the Advisor incorporates top-down perspective (using macroeconomic and risk perspective while reviewing sectors based on their fundamental, technical, and valuations factors) followed by bottom-up perspective (using fundamental credit analysis).
The Fund invests in U.S. treasury securities, investment grade bank loans (also known as senior floating rate interests), and preferred securities. The Fund's investments include securities of foreign issuers, including those located in developing or emerging markets. Under normal circumstances, the Fund maintains an average portfolio duration that is within ±25% of the duration of the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index, which as of September 30, 2024 was 2.85 years. The Fund is not managed to a particular maturity.
The Fund invests in derivatives, including currency swaps, credit default swaps, and credit index futures for hedging purposes and to manage fixed-income exposure in an effort to increase or decrease, in an efficient manner, exposures to certain sectors or individual issuers. A derivative is a financial arrangement, the value of which is derived from, or based on, a traditional security, asset, or market index.
