The Franklin Liberty High Yield Corporate ETF (FLHY) primarily invests in high-yield corporate debt, maintaining at least 80% of its net assets in these instruments under normal market conditions. The fund has the flexibility to allocate up to 100% of its portfolio to sub-investment grade securities, commonly referred to as junk bonds, which offer higher yields to compensate for increased credit risk. High-yield issuers often utilize this debt to fund leveraged buyouts, capital expenditures, or debt refinancing when traditional bank financing is unavailable.
The fund’s mandate includes a global scope, allowing for investments in both U.S. and foreign issuers across developed and emerging markets. These holdings may be denominated in U.S. dollars or local currencies, introducing potential foreign exchange risk to the portfolio. Unlike investment-grade bonds, the high-yield sector is more closely correlated with equity market performance and the broader health of the corporate credit cycle. Investors can further evaluate these credit risk profiles by reviewing the latest metrics on ValueRay.
