The Aptus Collared Income Opportunity ETF (ACIO) is an actively-managed ETF that invests primarily in U.S.-listed equities and overlays an options collar strategy on those positions, writing call options (up to 100% of each holding) and using a portion of the premiums received to purchase protective put options. The fund may apply the collar to individual equity holdings, U.S. equity ETFs, or equity-tracking indexes.
Factual details: ACIO falls within the Equity Hedged Morningstar category, reflecting its combined use of covered-call writing and protective puts-a hedged equity approach that seeks to generate option premium income while capping downside risk. The fund is listed on the Cboe BZX Exchange (BATS) and launched on July 9, 2019.
