This index includes U.S. dollar-denominated, investment-grade, fixed-rate, taxable securities issued by industrial, utility, and financial companies, with maturities greater than 10 years.

FTHI

First Trust High Income ETF

FTHI Description The investment seeks current income; capital appreciation is a secondary objective. The fund will pursue its objectives by investing in large cap equity securities listed on U.S. exchanges and by utilizing an "option strategy" consisting of writing (selling) U.S. exchange-traded covered call options on the Standard & Poor's 500(c) Index (the "index"). The market value of the option strategy may be up to 20% of the fund's overall net asset value. The equity securities in which the fund will invest and the options which the fund will write will be limited to U.S. exchange-traded securities and options. It is non-diversified.
