C000265717 Investment Objective and Strategy
Innovator U.S. Small Cap Managed 10 Buffer ETF describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Innovator ETFs Trust.
Investment objective
The Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation while seeking to limit the amount of losses experienced by investors (prior to taking into account management fees and other fees).
Principal investment strategy
The Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (including borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities and option contracts that give economic exposure to equity securities of U.S. small capitalization companies. The Fund is an actively managed ETF that, under normal market circumstances, seeks to provide capital appreciation through participation in the small -capitalization U.S. equity markets while seeking to limit any losses. Pursuant to its investment objective, the Fund intends to invest in a diversified portfolio of equity securities (the “Equity Portfolio” ) that are representative of the Solactive United States 2000 Index (the “Equity Portfolio Index” ), together with put and call option contracts (the “Options Portfolio” ) in an effort to reduce the potential for losses.
The Fund’s investment adviser is Innovator Capital Management, LLC ( “Innovator” or the “Adviser” ) and the Fund’s investment sub -adviser is Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC ( “Parametric” or the “Sub -Adviser ” ). The Sub -Adviser will actively monitor the performance of the portfolio and, as described further below, selectively ladder the Options Portfolio to seek to protect capital. As further described below, the Fund’s principal investment strategy seeks to implement the following: • U.S. Small Capitalization Companies Exposure: The Fund invests its net assets in equity securities of certain U.S. small capitalization companies included in the Equity Portfolio Index subject to the limitations on upside exposure further described below. See “Equity Portfolio” below for additional information.
• Investment 10% Buffers: The Fund seeks to provide a series of “buffers” that each seek to protect the Fund against 10% of the Russell 2000 Price Return Index (the “U.S. Small Cap Index” ) losses, as measured at the end of one -year periods and prior to taking into account the Fund’s annual management fee and other fees, which will have the effect of reducing the buffer amount
