The Fund invests generally in a diversified portfolio of securities of unaffiliated exchange-traded funds (“ETFs” or “Underlying Funds”). Underlying Funds will invest in income producing securities, including money market funds, corporate securities and municipal debt of any rating. To a limited extent, the Fund may also invest in direct investments.
Under normal market conditions, YieldX Advisers, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) seeks to manage the Fund to a net 8% SEC yield or distribution yield. The Sub-Adviser maintains a large database of eligible securities and their associated yields and expected risk profiles that is updated daily. If the yield of the portfolio falls below the target range, the Sub-Adviser may sell those Underlying Funds and capture the gain, if applicable, and reallocate to Underlying Funds that meet the target range. If yields go above the target range, the Sub-Adviser will assess the risk profile of the portfolio and may decide to sell those Underlying Funds and reallocate to other Underlying Funds to meet the target range with a lower risk profile. When determining whether to sell or hold Underlying Funds that have fallen outside the target yield range, the Sub-Adviser will consider the market and security-specific environment that led to the shift in yield, the relative risk-adjusted attractiveness of other Underlying Funds that could potentially replace the existing Underlying Funds in the portfolio and the tax implications of the transaction. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its yield target at any given point in time. The Sub-Adviser may elect to maintain a lower yield profile for a period of time if it determines that current short-term market conditions are not advantageous to maintaining the Fund’s stated yield target.
Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest primarily in Underlying Funds focusing on the following types of securities, including but not limited to:
● | Investment grade and high yield corporate bonds; |
● | Asset-backed and mortgage-back securities; |
● | Emerging markets securities; |
● | United States government securities; |
● | Sovereign debt; and |
● | Preferred securities. |
The Underlying Funds may invest in securities that have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, but that may be resold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144A Securities”).
Restricted securities, including Rule 144A Securities, are securities that have not been publicly issued and legally can be resold only to qualified buyers. Rule 144A Securities will not be considered illiquid if the Underlying Fund determines that an adequate trading market exists for the securities.
The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities that are deemed to be illiquid, which may include private placements, certain Rule 144A securities (which are subject to resale restrictions), and securities of issuers that are bankrupt or in default. The Fund may actively and frequently trade the Fund’s holdings.
The Fund has no investment policy or restrictions regarding the duration or maturity of the securities it invests in or its portfolio in the aggregate.
