Quadratic Interest Rate Volatility and Inflation Hedge ETF

IVOL Description

The investment seeks to hedge the risk of increased fixed income volatility and rising inflation and to profit from rising long-term interest rates or falling short-term interest rates, often referred to as a steepening of the U.S. interest rate curve, while providing inflation-protected income. The fund is actively managed and seeks to achieve its investment objective primarily by investing, directly or indirectly, in a mix of U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ("TIPS") and long options tied to the shape of the U.S. interest rate curve. It is non-diversified.

ETRACS 2xMonthly Pay Leveraged Preferred Stock Index ETN due September 25, 2048

PFFL Description The investment seeks to provide two times leveraged long exposure to the compounded monthly performance of the Solactive Preferred Stock ETF Index (the “index”). The index is designed to track the price movements of an equally weighted portfolio of two exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that hold preferred securities of various issuers. The Securities are two times leveraged with respect to the index and, as a result, will benefit from two times any beneficial, but will be exposed to two times any adverse, compounded monthly performance of the index.
