Description: BKLN Senior Loan

The Invesco Senior Loan ETF (BKLN) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of an index composed of the largest institutional leveraged loans. The fund commits at least 80% of its total assets to the securities that make up this underlying index. Morningstar, Inc. serves as the index provider, responsible for compiling, maintaining, and calculating the index, which reflects the market-value-weighted performance of its loan components based on their market weightings, spreads, and interest payments.

Senior loans, also known as bank loans or leveraged loans, are typically issued to below investment-grade (non-investment-grade or junk-rated) companies and rank at the top of a borrowers capital structure, giving them priority over unsecured bondholders and equity holders in the event of default. These loans are generally structured with floating interest rates that reset periodically based on a benchmark rate, so their coupon payments tend to rise and fall with prevailing interest rates-a distinguishing feature compared to fixed-rate corporate bonds.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Fed rate cuts pressure floating-rate loan yields
  • Rising leveraged loan defaults weigh on NAV
  • High-yield bond competition erodes investor demand
