Our read on ISWN
In short
AMost downside-protection funds pay for the cushion by capping your upside. ISWN skips the cap: roughly 90% sits in Treasuries while about 10% buys long-dated in-the-money calls on EFA, so developed-market exposure arrives through options.
Stated mandate
The fund seeks to track a rules-based index combining U.S. Treasury securities with EFA options. Its strategy targets approximately 90% Treasury exposure to cushion severe, rare market disruptions while retaining some participation in EFA gains.
