About this ETF
The Aptus Collared Income Opportunity ETF (ACIO) is an actively managed fund with the dual objective of achieving both capital growth and a consistent income stream. This strategy primarily involves investing in a focused portfolio of 70-80 large-capitalization individual stocks, on which it then sells covered call options to generate additional income. A core feature of ACIO is its commitment to minimizing downside risk through the strategic purchase of long put options tied to a broad-based market index, offering a layer of protection against significant market declines.
