Virtus Newfleet Short Duration Core Plus Bond ETF (SDCP) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks current income consistent with preservation of capital and limited net asset value fluctuations from interest rate changes by investing primarily in investment grade, short-duration debt securities across multiple bond sectors, including asset-backed securities, investment grade corporates, non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities, U.S. Treasuries, high yield corporates, non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities, and mortgage-backed securities; the fund targets an effective duration of 1-3 years with flexibility for below-investment-grade and developed markets debt to pursue yield opportunities, employing a relative value approach with top-down sector allocation, bottom-up security selection, and rigorous portfolio risk management.
