About this ETF
The fund's primary objective is to deliver ongoing income to investors. Typically, and under usual market conditions, it dedicates a minimum of 80% of its total investment capital – which comprises its net assets and any funds borrowed for investment purposes – to preferred securities and a diverse range of other instruments designed to generate income. This investment approach specifically incorporates contingent convertible securities (CoCos) and various other forms of capital instruments.

Guided help: AUM is fund size. The expense ratio is the yearly cost baked into returns. NAV is the value of what the fund owns per share; the market price can sit slightly above (premium) or below (discount) it. Total return assumes distributions were reinvested. Every dataset shows its own as-of date because holdings, assets and quotes update on different schedules.
