Investment Rationale

The Trust’s investment objective is to provide current income and additional total return. There is no assurance that the Trust will achieve its investment objective. The Trust seeks to provide investors with the following potential benefits:

  • Active global allocation to navigate increasingly volatile markets
  • Diversified income from global dividends and opportunistic fixed income
  • Regular monthly distributions

Download Investor Brochure

Investment Approach

The Trust seeks current income and additional total return by investing in a broad range of income-producing securities to include both equity and debt securities of companies located in the U.S. and around the globe. The Trust additionally expects to employ an options strategy to generate current income from options premiums and to improve risk-adjusted returns. There can be no assurance that the Trust will achieve its investment objective, and you could lose some or all of your investment.

Investment Strategy

The Trust will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets, directly or indirectly, in a broad range of income-producing securities. The Trust will invest in both equity and debt securities of companies located in the United States and around the globe. The Trust may invest in companies of any market capitalization and may invest in both U.S. and non-U.S. countries, including up to 20% of its Managed Assets at the time of investment in equity and debt securities of emerging market companies. The Trust’s global equity allocation is expected to represent 75% of Managed Assets and may vary over time between 50% to 90% of Managed Assets. The Trust’s global debt allocation is expected to represent 25% of Managed Assets and may vary over time between 10% to 50% of Managed Assets.

The Trust’s options strategy is intended to generate current income from options premiums and to improve its risk-adjusted returns. The notional amount of the options strategy will be approximately 10% to 40% of the Trust’s Managed Assets.

The Trust has a 12-year term.§
