Composite Description and Notes
Structured Notes Composite: The Structured Note strategy is designed to optimize risk-adjusted returns through a combination of callable yield notes and callable growth notes. Our structured note composite targets tenors ranging from 12 months to five years, with the most widely used structure being a 3-year term. Notes within this strategy typically include a "no-call" period of between 3 and 12 months, providing a minimum holding window before the issuer can call the note early. This strategy combines both callable yield notes and callable growth notes with objectives of providing income and growth and looks to return an average of 12% return per year when annualized over periods 5 years or longer. The strategy may experience losses as it is subject to market risk, interest rate risk, and other economic risks that may influence the returns of this strategy. The Structured Notes composite is compared against the 40% S&P 500 (TR) & 30% Bloomberg 1-3 Month T-Bill & 30% Bloomberg US Agg Bond. The Structured Notes composite has a minimum of $1,000. The Structured Notes composite was created in July 2024 and incepted on October 1, 2018.
