Our read on SECR
BMost core bond funds lean Treasury-heavy. SECR goes the other way, built from the securitized corner of the market (mortgages, asset-backed paper, CLOs), with current income as the stated point and a monthly payout to match.
The Fund seeks total return with an emphasis on current income.
Why people hold it
- A pure securitized play: mortgage-backed, asset-backed and collateralized loan securities, measured against the Bloomberg U.S. Securitized Bond Index rather than a Treasury-heavy aggregate.
- Income is the stated job, not a side effect. The mandate is total return with an emphasis on current income, and cash goes out monthly.
- Spread across several hundred bonds, so no single deal drives the outcome.
- The portfolio has stayed close to the securitized mandate it advertises, which is not a given in credit corners this specialized.
Worth knowing
- 0.40% a year is real money next to the index giants (BND, SPAB and SCHZ all charge 0.03%). That is the toll for a specialist securitized portfolio.
- Launched in 2024, so the track record is short and has not been through a full rate cycle.
- A smaller, lightly traded fund, so bid/ask spreads can be a bigger slice of the cost than with the mega core bond ETFs.
