Objective and strategy
The investment seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Bianco Research Fixed Income Total Return Index. Under normal circumstances, the fund primarily invests in the constituent exchange-traded funds (“ETF”) of the index. The index, created by Bianco Research Advisors LLC, is composed of approximately 5 to 20 fixed income ETFs that are specifically selected and weighted using a modified market-capitalization weighting scheme to achieve specified factor exposures. It is non-diversified.
