EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS

Discover active fixed income ETFs at Capital Group

Backed by a 50+ year track record of active fixed income management, our 9 bond ETFs aim to leverage the benefits of the ETF vehicle and were designed with investors’ long-term goals in mind.

Tradability

Greater liquidity, efficient pricing and the ability to trade intraday

 

We work closely with our market partners so they understand how we invest and can offer ample liquidity for our ETFs. We also take in-kind transfers1 when available to help keep costs low for our clients.

Transparency

Get daily visibility into underlying holdings and exposures

 

The holdings of our ETFs are published daily, which means you know exactly what your clients own. This clarity can bring some confidence, particularly if liquidity concerns arise during times of market stress.

Tax efficiency

Greater control over the timing of realizing capital gains/losses

 

Portfolio managers use custom baskets2 to transfer bonds with embedded gains3 out of the portfolio, when possible, during redemptions4 and aim to proactively realize losses inside the ETF to help offset potential future gains.

EXPLORE OUR CAPABILITES

1 In-kind transfer: A transaction that can occur in the process of creating or redeeming ETF shares in which securities considered to be equal in value are exchanged instead of cash.

2 Custom basket: A feature of most ETFs that allow ETF issuers to create non-representative baskets of securities (i.e., not a pro-rata slice) that can be used during the creation/redemption process. The securities selected for the basket may help ETF issuers reduce trading costs for investors or avoid the realization of capital gains.

3 Embedded gain: The price appreciation that exists when the current market value of an asset within an ETF exceeds its original purchase price but because the asset hasn’t yet been sold, it hasn’t been realized or taxed.

4 ETF redemption: A process that occurs in the primary market when the secondary market can’t support ETF selling activity. The ETF shares are redeemed in exchange for a portfolio of securities, cash or a combination of the two.

Investments are not FDIC-insured, nor are they deposits of or guaranteed by a bank or any other entity, so they may lose value.
Investors should carefully consider investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. This and other important information is contained in the ETF prospectuses and summary prospectuses, which can be obtained from a financial professional and should be read carefully before investing.
Capital Group exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are actively managed and do not seek to replicate a specific index. ETF shares are bought and sold through an exchange at the then current market price, not net asset value (NAV), and are not individually redeemed from the fund. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV when traded on an exchange. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. There can be no guarantee that an active market for ETFs will develop or be maintained, or that the ETF's listing will continue or remain unchanged.
