VRIG Profile
The Invesco Variable Rate Investment Grade ETF is designed to offer investors exposure to a portfolio of investment-grade debt securities with variable or floating interest rates. The fund focuses on providing income and capital preservation by investing primarily in high-quality, short-term debt instruments that adjust their interest payments based on market rates. This approach helps mitigate the impact of rising interest rates on the fund's performance, making it a suitable choice for investors seeking to manage interest rate risk while benefiting from investment-grade securities.
The fund commits at least 80% of its net assets, including any borrowings for investment purposes, to a diversified array of variable rate or floating rate debt securities. These securities include corporate bonds, government agency securities, and other debt instruments that have adjustable interest rates. By investing in these variable rate instruments, the fund aims to provide a steady stream of income while maintaining a high credit quality profile, which can be beneficial in a rising interest rate environment.
In addition to direct investments, the fund may also allocate up to 80% of its net assets to affiliated exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest primarily in variable rate or floating rate investment-grade securities. This approach allows the fund to gain additional exposure to its target asset class and enhance diversification through indirect investments. The focus on investment-grade securities ensures that the portfolio maintains a high level of credit quality, aiming to minimize default risk while providing attractive yields.
Managed by Invesco, the ETF benefits from the firm's expertise in fixed income investing and its focus on rigorous research and risk management. Invesco’s strategy emphasizes maintaining a diversified and high-quality portfolio to deliver consistent performance and income. The fund's investment strategy is designed to navigate various interest rate environments, providing investors with a tool to manage interest rate exposure while achieving stable returns from investment-grade debt securities.
