The Invesco Senior Loan ETF (BKLN) tracks the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan Index by investing at least 80% of its assets in the largest institutional leveraged loans. These loans are senior secured debt obligations, typically positioned at the top of a companys capital structure, providing them priority for repayment over unsecured bonds and equity in the event of a default.
The underlying index utilizes a market-value-weighted methodology based on loan spreads, interest payments, and total market weighting. Unlike fixed-rate corporate bonds, bank loans generally feature floating interest rates tied to benchmarks like SOFR, which can mitigate interest rate risk during periods of monetary tightening. For a deeper analysis of how these credit spreads impact long-term returns, explore the data on ValueRay. Investors should note that while senior status offers protection, the underlying borrowers are typically non-investment grade entities with higher credit risk.
