Description: VRP Variable Rate Preferred

The Invesco Variable Rate Preferred ETF (VRP) is a passively managed fund that seeks to track a market capitalization-weighted index composed primarily of U.S. dollar-denominated floating and variable rate preferred stocks, along with certain hybrid securities. Under normal conditions, the fund invests at least 90% of its total assets in the indexs components and American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) representing those securities. The underlying index includes both investment grade and below investment grade issues, and the fund operates as a non-diversified portfolio.

Unlike traditional fixed-rate preferred stock ETFs, VRP focuses on variable and floating rate preferreds, meaning the dividend payments on the underlying holdings typically adjust with prevailing interest rates, providing some protection against rising rate environments. The ETF targets the preferred stock segment of the fixed income market, offering investors exposure to a specialized income-generating asset class that sits between common equity and senior debt in a companys capital structure.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Fed rate hikes boost variable rate preferred dividend yields
  • Credit spreads widen as preferred default risk rises
  • Bank preferred issuance surges amid regulatory capital requirements
