FLTR: High Quality Floating Rate Exposure

  • VanEck IG Floating Rate ETF is a fund focused on investment-grade floating rate notes; the latest drawdowns were minimal, helping to highlight its relatively lower volatility. FLTR could be a lower-risk alternative to FINS that we covered recently, avoiding leverage and the added volatility of CEF discount/premiums. FLTR's portfolio is highly diversified and tilted towards investment-grade financial sector holdings, helping to produce minimal losses but carries a reasonable yield.
