- Aptus Defined Risk ETF (DRSK) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks current income and capital appreciation through a hybrid fixed income and equity strategy. The fund, issued by Aptus Capital Advisors, LLC and listed on Cboe, allocates 90-95% of its assets to investment-grade corporate bonds via a laddered approach using underlying ETFs such as Invesco BulletShares Corporate Bond ETFs (e.g., BSCU, BSCV, BSCW, BSCX) and iShares iBonds Term Corporate ETFs (e.g., IBDU, IBDV, IBDW, IBDX) maturing across 2029 to 2034; the remainder targets gains from long-term in-the-money call options on selective large-cap stocks and sectors, including positions on stocks like LLY, MRK, INTC, NVDA, SNAP, TSLA, CRM, and indices like S&P 500 (SPXW) and financials (XLF), supplemented by protective put options and cash equivalents. DRSK operates primarily in U.S. markets, targeting income-focused investors seeking equity upside with defined risk mitigation. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Fairhope, Alabama, Aptus Capital Advisors manages DRSK as part of a broader suite of active ETFs emphasizing behavioral finance, options overlays, and risk-managed strategies for individual and high-net-worth investors. In recent developments, Aptus Capital Advisors merged with LibertyFi in January 2024 to form a $20 billion platform offering integrated technology, operations outsourcing, and custom asset management for registered investment advisors. The firm expanded its options-based ETF lineup in May 2025 with the launch of the Aptus Deferred Income ETF (DEFR) and in October 2025 with a quarterly series of low-cost 15% Buffered ETFs (JANB, APRB, JULB, OCTB), building on strong adoption of DRSK and building AUM across its ETF suite surpassing $5.5 billion as of September 30, 2025; earlier in November 2024, it introduced the Aptus Large Cap Upside ETF (UPSD). These initiatives reflect Aptus' strategic focus on enhancing risk-managed, tax-efficient products amid rising demand for hybrid income-growth solutions.
