PGIM Launches Two New Securitized Credit ETFs, Including a AAA-Rated CLO ETF With Core-Like Duration Exposure

Launches extend PGIM’s fixed income ETF platform into areas of growing investor demand

NEWARK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PGIM, the $1.4 trillion global asset management business of Prudential Financial, Inc.¹ (NYSE: PRU), has launched a market- differentiated AAA-rated collateralized loan obligation (CLO) exchange-traded fund (ETF) designed to provide core-like duration exposure.² The fund, named the PGIM AAA CLO Aggregate Duration ETF (AAAD), launched alongside the PGIM Securitized Income ETF (PINC), which also employs a duration overlay.

“With this launch, we’re excited to introduce a strategy that leverages our CLO expertise to provide enhanced yield potential compared to traditional high-quality duration sectors,” said Edwin Wilches, co-head of Securitized Products at PGIM.

The PGIM AAA CLO Aggregate Duration ETF (AAAD) invests primarily in U.S. dollar-denominated AAA-rated CLOs either directly or through its investment in the PGIM AAA CLO ETF (PAAA). PAAA is the only Morningstar Medalist Gold-rated product in its Morningstar category and has been among the fastest-growing strategies in the market, accumulating over $10 billion in assets since its inception.³ AAAD expects to use longer-duration fixed income instruments and derivative instruments, such as futures, forwards, options, swaps, and U.S. Treasury futures, in seeking to maintain its target portfolio duration or to extend the overall duration of its portfolio beyond that of its CLO exposure. It is listed on NYSE Arca, Inc. and offered at a 0.19% net expense ratio.

The PGIM Securitized Income ETF (PINC) invests primarily in securitized credit investments and other similar credit instruments, including derivative instruments that provide diversified exposure across the securitized credit landscape. It is listed on the Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. and is offered at a 0.39% net expense ratio.

Both AAAD and PINC seek to maximize total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation, leveraging the deep expertise of PGIM’s $1.2 trillion credit platform.¹

“We’re expanding our active ETF platform with innovative, competitively priced strategies that give investors more precise access to income-generating securitized credit opportunities,” said Stuart Parker, head of Global Wealth at PGIM.

PGIM’s ETF platform offers over 60 actively managed ETFs across equity and fixed income asset classes. PGIM is the 11th-largest active ETF provider⁴ with $27 billion in assets under management.¹

PGIM AAA CLO Aggregate Duration ETF Risk Disclosure

As an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF), risks of investing in the Fund include, but are not limited to the following: The Fund is subject to authorized participant concentration risk and the risks of transacting in cash versus in-kind. ETFs may trade at a premium or discount to net asset value and may lack an active trading market. Additional costs may be incurred when transacting through a broker. Collateralized loan obligations are subject to credit, interest rate, valuation and prepayment and extension risks, as well as risk of default on the underlying asset. Collateralized loan obligation (CLO) managers may have limited operating histories and may be subject to conflicts of interest that may incentivize maximizing the yield, and indirectly the risk, of a CLO. Fixed income investments are subject to credit, market, prepayment and interest rate risks, and their value will decline as interest rates rise. Leveraging techniques may magnify losses. As a “fund of funds,” the Fund is subject to the performance and risks of the underlying funds and their investments. Foreign securities are subject to currency fluctuations and political uncertainty. Derivatives may carry market, credit and liquidity risks. The Fund has a limited operating history, and investment positions may have a disproportionate impact on performance. There is no guarantee the Fund’s objective will be achieved. Risks are more fully explained in the Fund’s prospectus.

ETFs may trade at a premium or discount to net asset value and may lack an active trading market. Additional costs may be incurred when transacting through a broker. Collateralized loan obligations are subject to credit, interest rate, valuation and prepayment and extension risks, as well as risk of default on the underlying asset. Collateralized loan obligation (CLO) managers may have limited operating histories and may be subject to conflicts of interest that may incentivize maximizing the yield, and indirectly the risk, of a CLO. Fixed income investments are subject to credit, market, prepayment and interest rate risks, and their value will decline as interest rates rise. Floating rate and other loans are subject to the risk that failure to receive scheduled interest or principal payments on a loan would adversely affect the income of the Fund and would likely reduce the value of its assets. High yield (“junk”) bonds are subject to greater credit and market risks. Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities tend to increase in value less than other debt securities when interest rates decline, but are subject to a similar risk of decline in market value during periods of rising interest rates. Holders of structured product securities bear the risks of the underlying investments, index or reference obligation. Investments in currency may result in a decline in the Fund’s net asset value due to changes in exchange rates. Foreign securities are subject to currency fluctuations and political uncertainty. Derivatives may carry market, credit and liquidity risks. Leveraging techniques may magnify losses. The Fund has a limited operating history, and investment positions may have a disproportionate impact on performance. There is no guarantee the Fund’s objective will be achieved. Risks are more fully explained in the Fund’s prospectus.

Derivatives may carry market, credit and liquidity risks. As a non-diversified fund, investments in the Fund involve greater risk than investing in a diversified fund because a loss resulting from the decline in value of any one security may represent a greater portion of the total assets of a non-diversified fund. There is no guarantee the Fund’s objective will be achieved. Risks are more fully explained in the fund’s prospectus.

The Morningstar Medalist Rating is the summary expression of Morningstar’s forward‑looking analysis of investment strategies as offered via specific vehicles using a rating scale of Gold, Silver, Bronze, Neutral, and Negative. These ratings indicate which investments Morningstar believes are likely to outperform their Morningstar Category average on a risk‑adjusted basis over time. Investment products are evaluated on three fundamental pillars (People, Parent, and Process) and the Medalist Rating Price Score, which forms the basis for Morningstar’s conviction in products’ investment merits and determines the Medalist Rating assigned. Ratings take the form of Low (‑2), Below Average (‑1), Average (0), Above Average (+1), and High (+2). Pillars may be evaluated via an analyst’s qualitative assessment (either directly to a vehicle the analyst covers or indirectly when the pillar ratings of a covered vehicle are mapped to a related uncovered vehicle) or using algorithmic techniques. The cost of an investment product is evaluated using the Medalist Rating Price Score, which is a continuous score from -2.5 to +2.5 based on the percentile rank of a vehicle’s expense ratio within its Morningstar Category. Morningstar combines the pillar scores and Medalist Rating Price Score using predetermined weights for actively and passively managed vehicles to calculate a weighted score. The weighted score is then compared to fixed thresholds employed consistently across Morningstar Categories and regions, with separate thresholds for actively and passively managed investments. Rating thresholds are reviewed at least annually. Buffers and ratings caps help prevent frequent ratings changes. When analysts directly cover a vehicle, they assign the fundamental pillar ratings based on their qualitative assessment, subject to Analyst Rating Committee oversight, and monitor and reevaluate them approximately once a year. When vehicles are covered either indirectly by analysts or by algorithm, the ratings are assigned monthly. For more detailed information about the Medalist Ratings, including their methodology, please visit: http://global.morningstar.com/managerdisclosures. The Morningstar Medalist Ratings are not statements of fact, nor are they credit or risk ratings. The Morningstar Medalist Rating (i) should not be used as the sole basis in evaluating an investment product, (ii) involves unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause expectations not to occur or to differ significantly from what was expected, (iii) is not guaranteed to be based on complete or accurate assumptions or models when determined algorithmically, (iv) involves the risk that return targets will not be met due to unforeseen changes in management, technology, economic development, interest rate development, operating and/or material costs, competitive pressure, supervisory law, exchange rates, tax rates, or political and social conditions, and (v) should not be considered an offer or solicitation to buy or sell the investment product. A change in the fundamental factors underlying the Morningstar Medalist Rating may result in the rating no longer being accurate. Analysts do not have any other material conflicts of interest at the time of publication. Users wishing to obtain further information should contact their local Morningstar office.
