In short

BAPR Buffered S&P 500 exposure on an April clock. FLEX options absorb the first 9% of a drawdown over each roughly one-year period, and the trade-off is a ceiling on the upside. Live since 2019, resetting every April 1.

TENJ No data

Stated mandate

BAPR The Fund seeks to replicate the performance of an ETF tracking the S&P 500 over the current approximately one-year Outcome Period, subject to a cap, while buffering the first 9% of losses. It uses FLEX Options referencing the Underlying ETF.

TENJ No data

Why people hold it

  • BAPR The first 9% of an S&P 500 decline is absorbed over each roughly one-year outcome period, built from FLEX options on SPY inside a 1940 Act fund rather than a bank note.
  • Clean annual reset: each April 1 starts a new twelve-month period with a fresh 9% buffer and a fresh cap, no rolling or rebalancing on your end.
  • Trading since April 2019, so the April vintage has already run through multiple full outcome periods, including live market stress.

TENJ No data

Worth knowing

  • BAPR The upside is capped. In a strong S&P 500 year the fund is designed to stop participating once the period's cap is reached.
  • Buffer and cap are measured from the April 1 start. Buy mid-period and the protection left and the room above you differ from the headline terms.
  • 0.79% a year, above cheaper buffered peers such as SWAN and DMAX. It is also one of the lighter-volume buffer funds and has not been paying distributions.
