- FT Vest Emerging Markets Buffer ETF - September is a First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund VIII exchange-traded fund managed by First Trust Advisors LP and subadvised by Vest Financial, LLC; the fund seeks to deliver the price return of the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF up to a predetermined upside cap while providing a buffer against the first 10% of losses over a one-year outcome period using FLEX options. The fund is part of First Trust’s defined-outcome ETF lineup, has an inception date of September 20, 2024, is domiciled in the United States, and is associated with the FT Vest brand and the company’s ftportfolios.com platform. The fund’s core strategy centers on synthetic exposure to emerging markets equities through options rather than direct stock ownership, with the reference asset tied to broad developing-market exposure; its holdings are concentrated and include option positions on the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, cash, and short-term government money market exposure. The fund is designed for investors seeking capped upside and partial downside protection, and its published materials show a regular reset of cap and buffer levels for each target outcome period. Recent major changes include a January 8, 2025 management change in which Howard Rubin no longer had primary day-to-day responsibility for the fund and Trevor Lack, along with Karan Sood, assumed primary responsibility. More recent fund data also show ongoing portfolio and outcome-period updates, including the current September 2026 holdings and distribution schedule posted on First Trust’s website.
