The Simplify MBS ETF (MTBA) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that invests at least 80% of its net assets in mortgage-backed securities. The fund takes a broad definition of MBS, covering both agency and non-agency, residential and commercial securities, as well as related derivatives such as futures, forwards, swaps, and options. It focuses primarily on MBS issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises and agencies, specifically the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). The fund was listed on NYSE on November 6, 2023.
Mortgage-backed securities are fixed-income instruments backed by pools of mortgage loans, where investors receive payments derived from the underlying homeowners mortgage payments. Agency MBS issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac benefit from explicit or implicit U.S. government support, which generally distinguishes them from non-agency MBS that carry private credit risk. The fund is classified as an Intermediate Government ETF, indicating its focus on government-backed debt securities with intermediate-term maturities.
