Cohen & Steers Preferred and Income Opportunities Active ETF

CSPF

Capitalización de mercado USD 335 M

Cohen & Steers Preferred & Income Opptys Actv ETF targets institutional-grade preferreds, emphasizing total return with active management. CSPF holds a 43% overweight in banking preferreds and a significant 34% allocation to CoCo bonds, introducing sector-specific risk. The ETF's 0.59% expense ratio is justified by strong first-year performance and narrow drawdowns during market stress.

The Income Quintet - BDCs, Midstream Energy, REITs, Preferred Stocks, and Covered Call ETFs - offers a balanced approach to maximizing yield and income safety. I prioritize quality over raw yield, focusing on internally managed BDCs, disciplined midstream operators, select REITs, and actively managed preferred ETFs for sustainable income. BDCs with internal management, like MAIN, command significant NAV premiums, reflecting superior alignment and lower capital costs compared to externally managed peers.

It's been full steam ahead for active ETFs, with total assets now rapidly approaching the $1 trillion milestone. The ETF market, once dominated by passive indexed strategies, has undergone a seismic shift, as issuers tap into investor demand for flexible and transparent tailor-made strategies.

On Wednesday, Cohen & Steers announced the launch of a suite of three different actively managed ETFs. Each of these funds uses the firm's tried-and-true investment strategies within the ETF wrapper.
