Our read on DABS

ETF.net Research

In short

BAsset-backed bonds, the debt built on pools of consumer and business loans, are a hand-picked corner of fixed income. DABS is DoubleLine's active run at it: roughly 100 positions, monthly payouts, chasing total return with income alongside.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term total return while also striving to generate current income.

Why people hold it

  • The mandate is plainly stated: long-term total return while also striving to generate current income, expressed through roughly 100 securitized positions rather than a broad index sweep.doubleline.com
  • At 0.40%, it prices right at the median for its bond peer group and level with SECU, one of the stronger-standing securitized funds in that group.
  • Distributions land monthly, matching the rhythm of the loan pools underneath.
  • The bond-by-bond lineup is the strongest part of the package, and the fund sits in the upper half of its bond cohort overall.

Worth knowing

  • Launched in 2025, so the history is thin. There is little track record showing how the portfolio behaves through a full credit cycle.
  • Thinly traded on a modest asset base, so the gap between the price you get and the portfolio's value can be wider than at a giant bond fund.
  • No index sits behind it. Results ride on the manager's security selection, and the 0.40% fee is the price of that judgment.doubleline.com
