AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Kensington Asset Management, a pioneer in systematic investment strategies is thrilled to expand its lineup with the launch of its first ETF: Kensington Hedged Premium Income (KHPI), designed for income generation with a downside hedge.
With growing demand for yield, the derivative income category has surged, resulting in a number of strategies that follow a similar covered call approach – buy an index and sell a call option to generate potential premium income. While these strategies may provide meaningful income, they often sacrifice capital appreciation and offer little protection against significant market drawdowns.
The Kensington Hedged Premium Income ETF (KHPI) was designed to address these weaknesses. KHPI seeks to deliver high tax-advantaged monthly income without sacrificing the potential for capital appreciation. By incorporating the downside hedge that Kensington Asset Management is known for, it may offer investors a more balanced and resilient income strategy.
"We are incredibly excited to expand our product suite with the launch of the Kensington Hedged Premium Income ETF," said Mark Engelbrecht, Managing Partner at Kensington Asset Management. "KHPI represents a significant addition to our lineup, and we believe it will offer investors a compelling option in today's challenging income landscape."
To mark this significant milestone, Kensington Asset Management, in partnership with Liquid Strategies, sub-advisor to KHPI, will be ringing the closing bell at CBOE Global Markets in Chicago on September 5, 2024.
