Invesco Fixed income ETFs
The growing universe of fixed income ETFs gives investors more options for accessing bond markets.
Whether it’s designing a new product, finding alternative ways to engage with colleagues and clients, or harnessing new technology the Invesco ETF team knows how to innovate. In this video Brian McMullen, fixed income ETF strategist, talks stress tests, building track records and earning trust.
A behind the scenes look at Invesco’s ETF ecosystem
INTERVIEW
You’ve been an innovator for a while, making the case for fixed income ETFs when the market wasn’t really pushing for them. What has that experience taught you? Patience and perseverance. We’re one of the largest fixed income ETF providers in the market and unlike other issuers, we compete on value rather than price. We’re not interested in being the lowest-cost provider. There’s certainly a place for that, but it’s not for us. Our focus is having a long-term vision and our conviction has borne fruit for our clients.
Unlike retail investors, institutional investors seem to be waking up to fixed income ETFs. Why is that? Institutions are moving large amounts of money in short amounts of time. When you get to that size and scale, you want to make sure your investment vehicle is something you trust. Over the course of the pandemic, fixed income ETFs have proven themselves worthy of that trust. Institutional investors have pushed the throttle forward ever since. Where do you see fixed income ETFs within a portfolio? Our clients use fixed income ETFs in a several ways to express various investment views. An institutional client might use them in a supplemental way to get access to a part of the market they don’t feel that confident about. We also see clients use them more tactically, in the form of a fixed income ETF that has an active options market. What about using fixed income ETFs as an alternative to cash allocations? That’s one of the most interesting adoptions we’ve seen over the last five years. For example, a senior loan manager who typically has anywhere from 2% to 5% of cash in their portfolio for liquidity purposes, which can potentially drag down performance, can use a fixed income ETF to give them liquidity and market exposure.

Demand surges for fixed income ETFs
Although the first fixed income ETF was launched eight years after its equity counterparts, fixed income ETFs are now projected to grow at a similar rate, with assets on pace to hit $5T by 2030.⁴ What’s more, the pandemic proved to be a much-needed stress test for fixed income ETFs. When the underlying bond markets seized up during the pandemic, fixed income ETFs behaved exactly as they were supposed to—providing investors with liquidity when they needed it most.
Extensive ETF experience
Many investors are familiar with our equity ETF experience, but you may not know our fixed income ETF history. We launched the first alternatively weighted fixed income ETF in 2007, and were the first issuer to launch a bank loan ETF in 2011. But we’re not content to rest on our history. We’re constantly thinking about new ways to differentiate our product range to serve our clients.

Investors should consult a financial advisor/financial consultant before making any investment decisions. Name/Ticker/Index Change Disclosures GOVI: Effective on Aug. 25, 2023, the Fund's name, ticker, underlying index, index provider, investment objective and investment strategy changed. The Fund's name and ticker changed from Invesco 1-30 Laddered Treasury ETF (ticker: PLW) to the Invesco Equal Weight 0-30 Year Treasury ETF (ticker: GOVI). The Fund's Index Provider changed from NASDAQ OMX Group, Inc. to ICE Data Indices, LLC. and its Underlying Index changed from the Ryan/Nasdaq U.S. 1-30 Year Treasury Laddered Index to the ICE 1-30 Year Laddered Maturity US Treasury Index; and as a result, the Fund's objective and strategy changed to seek to track the investment results of the new Underlying index by investing at least 80% of its total assets in securities that comprise the new Underlying Index. About Risk There are risks involved with investing in ETFs, including possible loss of money. Index-based ETFs are not actively managed. Actively managed ETFs do not necessarily seek to replicate the performance of a specified index. Both index-based and actively managed ETFs are subject to risks similar to stocks, including those related to short selling and margin maintenance. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. The Fund's return may not match the return of the Index. The Fund is subject to certain other risks. Please see the current prospectus for more information regarding the risk associated with an investment in the Fund. Shares are not individually redeemable and owners of the Shares may acquire those Shares from the Fund and tender those Shares for redemption to the Fund in Creation Unit aggregations only, typically consisting of 10,000, 20,000, 25,000, 50,000, 80,000, 100,000 or 150,000 Shares. Fixed-income investments are subject to credit risk of the issuer and the effects of changing interest rates. Interest rate risk refers to the risk that bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise and vice versa. An issuer may be unable to meet interest and/or principal payments, thereby causing its instruments to decrease in value and lowering the issuer’s credit rating. Before investing, investors should carefully read the prospectus/summary prospectus and carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses.

Investors should consult a financial professional before making any investment decisions. About risk Investments in real-estate related instruments may be affected by economic, legal, or environmental factors that affect property values, rents or occupancies of real estate. Real estate companies, including REITs or similar structures, tend to be small and mid-cap companies, and their shares may be more volatile and less liquid. Investing in commercial real estate assets involves certain risks, including but not limited to: tenants' inability to pay rent; increases in interest rates and lack of availability of financing; tenant turnover and vacancies; and changes in supply of or demand for similar property types in a given market. Alternative investment products, including hedge funds and private equity, involve a high degree of risk, often engage in leveraging and other speculative investment practices that may increase the risk of investment loss, can be highly illiquid, are not required to provide periodic pricing or valuation information to investors, may involve complex tax structures and delays in distributing important tax information, are not subject to the same regulatory requirements as mutual funds, often charge high fees which may offset any trading profits, and in many cases the underlying investments are not transparent and are known only to the investment manager. There is often no secondary market for hedge funds and private equity, and none is expected to develop. There may be restrictions on transferring interests in such investments. Interest rate risk refers to the risk that bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise and vice versa. An issuer may be unable to meet interest and/or principal payments, thereby causing its instruments to decrease in value and lowering the issuer’s credit rating. The values of junk bonds fluctuate more than those of high quality bonds and can decline significantly over short time periods. Most senior loans are made to corporations with below investment-grade credit ratings and are subject to significant credit, valuation and liquidity risk. The value of the collateral securing a loan may not be sufficient to cover the amount owed, be found invalid or used to pay other outstanding obligations. The loan's collateral may be difficult to liquidate, or a majority of the collateral may be illiquid. Treasury securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the US government as to the timely payment of principal and interest. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are subject to prepayment or call risk, which is the risk that the borrower’s payments may be received earlier or later than expected due to changes in prepayment rates on underlying loans. Securities may be prepaid at a price less than the original purchase value. The opinions expressed are those of Invesco Real Estate or Bert Crouch and are based on current market conditions which are subject to change without notice. These opinions may differ from those of other Invesco investment professionals. Invesco Distributors, Inc. is the U.S. distributor for Invesco's retail products and private placements. Invesco is not affiliated with Citywire and Cerulli Associates Important Index Information Direct Lending is represented by the Cliffwater Direct Lending Index (CDLI) which seeks to measure the unlevered, gross of fee performance of U.S. middle market corporate loans, as represented by the asset-weighted performance of the underlying assets of Business Development Companies (BDCs), including both exchange-traded and unlisted BDCs. Private Real Estate Equity is represented by the NCREIF Property Index (the “NPI”) on the basis that the NPI is the broadest measure of private real estate index returns. The NPI is published by the National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries and is a quarterly, composite total return (based on appraisal values) for private commercial real estate properties held for investment purposes including fund expenses but excluding leverage and management and advisory fees. The NPI excludes leverage and therefore is less volatile than real estate vehicles, which employs leverage. All properties in the NPI have been acquired, at least in part, on behalf of tax-exempt institutional investors and held in a fiduciary environment. NCREIF data reflects the returns of a blended portfolio of institutional quality real estate and does not reflect the use of leverage or the impact of management and advisory fees. Investment Grade Bonds are represented by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, an index of securities that covers the US investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities; and is subject to credit risk. CMBS are represented by the Bloomberg US CMBS Investment Grade Index which measures the market of US Agency and US Non-Agency conduit and fusion CMBS deals with a minimum current deal size of $300mn. Treasuries are represented by the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Unhedged Index which measures US dollar-denominated, fixed-rate, nominal debt issued by the US Treasury. Treasury bills are excluded by the maturity constraint but are part of a separate Short Treasury Index. STRIPS are excluded from the index because their inclusion would result in double-counting. Private Real Estate Credit is represented by the Giliberto-Levy Commercial Mortgage Performance Index (the “G-L 1”) which measures the investment performance of select private-market investments in commercial real estate debt. The G-L 1 Index is comprised of fixed-rate commercial mortgage loans held on balance sheets of institutions such as life insurance companies and pension funds. G-L 1 Index returns are based on a market-value-weighted blend of office, apartment, retail, industrial, lodging, mixed-use and other miscellaneous property types. G-L 1 Index performance tracks senior loans only; it does not include construction loans, mezzanine and other subordinate instruments and bridge loans made by such institutions. Private Real Estate Debt is represented by the Giliberto-Levy High-Yield Real Estate Debt Index (G-L 2) which measures total return and its components for many forms of high-yield CRE debt, such as high-yield commercial mortgage debt performance for high-yield loans, such as mezzanine loans, preferred equity and "B" notes. Corporate Bonds are represented by the Bloomberg U.S. Corporate Value Unhedged USD Index which measures the investment grade, fixed-rate, taxable corporate bond market. It includes USD denominated securities publicly issued by US and non-US industrial, utility and financial issuers. High Yield is represented by the Bloomberg US Corporate High Yield Bond Index which measures the USD-denominated, high yield, fixed-rate corporate bond market. Senior Loans are represented by the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan 100 Index which is designed to measure the performance of the 100 largest facilities in the US leveraged loan market. US Equity is represented by S&P 500 Index, an unmanaged index of the 500 largest stocks, weighted by market capitalization and considered representative of the broader stock market. Public real estate, bonds, treasuries and equities provide ready liquidity and are easily traded. The indexes mentioned above are meant to illustrate general market performance and it is not possible to invest directly in an index. The prices of securities represented by these indexes may change in response to factors including: the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer, the value of its assets, general economic conditions, interest rates and investor perceptions. All indexes are unmanaged and do not include the impact of fees and expenses. Comparisons shown are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent specific investments or the performance of private real estate credit. Investment grade bonds and high yield bonds are typically issued in $1,000 or $5,000 denominations and when purchased as a new issue, are not subject to fees or expenses. Leveraged loan denominations are negotiated by the issuer and arranger and typically are subject to fees and expenses. While the liquidity of assets in public markets depends on its credit rating and market conditions, there exists a secondary market for such bonds. Furthermore, issuers of investment grade bonds and high yield bonds are contractually obligated to pay periodic interest and repay a fixed principal amount at maturity.
The quiet giant
Once reserved for institutional investors, alternative investment strategies are becoming increasingly accessible to retail investors.² Investing in real estate is the very manifestation of active management – whether you’re the purchaser or the lender. Investing in a physical asset that can be renovated or improved can never be passive. These asset classes are estimated to double in size to $21.1tn by 2025, accounting for 15% of global AUM.³
Read the full report
Advisors told Cerulli that they’re planning to increase allocations to alternative investments, with optimal allocation 38% higher than current levels.
In 2023, Cerulli Associates, in partnership with the Investments & Wealth Institute, surveyed more than 200 advisors on their use of alternative investments and conducted 25 research calls to gather qualitative insights. Advisors identified ways an expanded shelf of alternative investments – such as private real estate – could help enhance their business.

PROJECT
Over the past ten years, commercial real estate debt has demonstrated a leading Sharpe Ratio and limited correlation with other fixed income investments – including private real estate equity.
So what’s driving the opportunity now?
Higher interest rates
Interest rates are higher than pre-Covid 19 and expected to stay high in the long term, which should support yields.
Reduced property values
Real estate equity prices have fallen since early 2022, so new loan collateral values will likely be lower than previous peaks.
Tighter bank regulation
Proposed higher bank capital requirements could diminish bank lending, which non-bank lenders could fill.

Value for money
Technology is lowering SMA fees and increasing visibility. Investors can access portfolio information and trade rationale online, making portfolios easier to understand, manage and monitor.
Tax optimization
Through SMAs, you can optimize taxes, not just manage them. Techniques such as tax-loss harvesting, deferring gains, and limiting short-term gains and non-qualified dividends help to maximize after-tax returns.
Customized solutions
Because SMAs directly own the underlying investments, they can provide a framework for clients to customize portfolios based on their unique needs.
SMAs empower advisors to deliver the tailored solutions and tax-optimized portfolios that clients expect.

How SMAs have evolved
Sophisticated techniques and software make it possible to continuously monitor portfolios for opportunities to generate meaningful tax-alpha.
New screening tools give advisors and their clients the ability to customize portfolios to express unique objectives and personal values.
Advisors and their clients have 24/7 online access to their portfolios and receive quarterly reports with detailed investment characteristics and performance.
Efficiencies from digitization and rising competition continue to drive SMA fees lower, making SMAs increasingly affordable for a wide range of clients.
A broader range on investments and better construction techniques mean advisors and their clients can build portfolios to exacting specifications.
Advisors and their clients can now create new SMAs and transfer accounts without printing and signing mountains of paperwork.
Separate accounts have been around for half a century. For most of their existence, SMAs were reserved for ultra-high-net-worth investors. Today, technology has significantly lowered the hurdles and upped the appeal of the structure, allowing financial professionals to deliver highly personalized, tax-smart portfolios that reflect the unique objectives and personal values of clients with more modest investable assets. New screening tools and increasingly sophisticated software have made it easier than ever for advisors to manage, monitor, and tax-optimize accounts, while efficiencies from digitization have made SMAs affordable for a wider range of clients.

In their search for investment avenues, investors have become clever with their capital, actively using options to generate an income. In doing so they’re harnessing the upside potential of equities in a way that gives them an element of downside protection, too.
Derivative income ETFs: Know what you own. With derivative income products, differences in the ETF structure, holdings, and trading can lead to meaningful variances in performance, yield consistency and tax treatment. It’s important to look under the hood and understand how these components might impact the fund. The Invesco Income Advantage strategy is designed to provide investors with a consistent stream of monthly income while maintaining exposure to equity markets. We accomplish this by combining two components that serve very distinct purposes: An equity portfolio and an options income strategy. So why options-based income? At a cost of reduced equity upside, options-based income strategies can diversify sources of income and aim to offer: • High and consistent yields without interest rate sensitivity • Equity market risk reduction
Seek consistent income with equity exposure
Why options-based income?
Investors need income. We have options. Our Income Advantage Suite is designed to provide total return through income today and potential long-term growth of capital tomorrow. In addition, QQA and RSPA are built on the foundation of our flagship ETFs, QQQ and RSP.

Built to provide consistent monthly income
QQA strives to provide a consistent yield from premiums collected from an option income overlay, dividends from stocks in the Nasdaq-100® Index, and interest income.
Seek consistent income
Like QQQ, QQA tracks the Nasdaq-100® Index, but it’s also designed to provide consistent monthly income and maintain growth potential – all with less volatility and downside risk mitigation.
QQA: Invesco QQQ Income Advantage ETF
Achieve equal exposure to all the market’s possibilities
RSPA invests a portion of the portfolio equally in all 500 stocks of the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index. This classic strategy for eliminating market concentration means you are never underexposed to the market’s possibilities.

This partnership allows us to utilize the ETF vehicle to package and deliver very sophisticated active strategies. Derivative income ETFs have seen significant growth and demand over the last few years. Why is that? The rising interest in derivative income ETFs stems from their ability to provide income, market participation, and lower volatility, especially in uncertain economic environments. These ETFs appeal to investors looking to enhance yield and manage risk, making them a popular choice for both retail and institutional portfolios. However, the design details of option income strategies are important, offering investors the potential to achieve a more consistent income stream while benefiting from a balanced and diversified equity exposure.

Clients integrate derivative income ETFs in diverse ways: Enhancing yield in conservative portfolios, diversifying income in balanced portfolios, mitigating equity volatility, supplementing growth in aggressive portfolios, and generating cash flow to name a few. Our ETF's balanced and diversified approach meets these needs, offering consistent income while maintaining key attributes like market participation and protection, making it a versatile addition across different portfolio objectives. What has been the reaction from clients to derivative income ETFs, and what aspects are they most excited about? Clients are embracing derivative income ETFs for their potential to generate steady income and provide flexibility in various market conditions. They value the ability to enhance yield, gain downside protection, and diversify income sources. Our strategy's balance of consistent income, market participation, and risk mitigation has been particularly well-received, offering a reliable and versatile option to meet diverse investment goals and portfolio needs.

Actively managed ETFs are subject to risks similar to stocks, including those related to short selling and margin maintenance. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. The Fund’s return may not match the return of the Index. The Fund is subject to certain other risks. Please see the current prospectus for more information regarding the risk associated with an investment in the Fund. Securities held by the Fund are subject to market fluctuations. You should anticipate that the value of the Shares will decline, more or less, in correlation with any decline in value of the securities in the Fund’s portfolio. Additionally, natural or environmental disasters, widespread disease or other public health issues, war, military conflicts, acts of terrorism, economic crises or other events could result in increased premiums or discounts to the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). The investment techniques and risk analysis used by the portfolio managers may not produce the desired results. While the Fund is actively managed, a substantial portion of the Fund’s portfolio is designed to track the performance of the Index. In managing this portion of the Fund’s portfolio, the portfolio managers will not generally buy or sell a security unless that security is added or removed, respectively, from the Index, regardless of the performance of that security. If a specific security is removed from the Index, the Fund may be forced to sell such security at an inopportune time or for a price lower than the security’s current market value. In general, equity values fluctuate, sometimes widely, in response to activities specific to the company as well as general market, economic and political conditions. Investments in ELNs are susceptible to the risks of their underlying instruments, which could include management risk, market risk and, as applicable, foreign securities and currency risks. ELNs are also subject to certain debt securities risks, such as interest rate and credit risks. Should the prices of the underlying instruments move in an unexpected manner, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of an investment in an ELN, and may realize losses, which could be significant and could include the Fund’s entire principal investment. An ELN investment is also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the issuer of the ELN will default or become bankrupt and the Fund may not be repaid the principal amount of, or income from, its investment. ELNs may also be less liquid than more traditional investments and the Fund may be unable to sell ELNs at a desirable time or price. In addition, the price of ELNs may not correlate with the underlying securities or a fixed income investment. Investments focused in a particular industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments. Derivatives may be more volatile and less liquid than traditional investments and are subject to market, interest rate, credit, leverage, counterparty and management risks. An investment in a derivative could lose more than the cash amount invested. Risks of futures contracts include: an imperfect correlation between the value of the futures contract and the underlying commodity; possible lack of a liquid secondary market; inability to close a futures contract when desired; losses due to unanticipated market movements; obligation for the Fund to make daily cash payments to maintain its required margin; failure to close a position may result in the Fund receiving an illiquid commodity; and unfavorable execution prices. A decision as to whether, when and how to use options involves the exercise of skill and judgment and even a well conceived option transaction may be unsuccessful because of market behavior or unexpected events. The prices of options can be highly volatile and the use of options can lower total returns. Short sales may cause an investor to repurchase a security at a higher price, causing a loss. As there is no limit on how much the price of the security can increase, exposure to potential loss is unlimited. The Fund is non-diversified and may experience greater volatility than a more diversified investment. The value of an individual security or particular type of security may be more volatile than the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. The Fund currently intends to effect creations and redemptions principally for cash, rather than principally in-kind because of the nature of the Fund’s investments. As such, investments in the Fund may be less tax efficient than investments in ETFs that create and redeem in-kind. The Fund is subject to numerous market trading risks, including the potential lack of an active market, losses from trading in secondary markets, and disruption in the creation/redemption process. During stressed market conditions, Shares may become less liquid as result of deteriorating liquidity which could lead to differences in the market price and the underlying value of those Shares. QQA Investments focused in a particular sector, such as information technology, are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments. RSPA Because the Fund may invest in other investment companies, it’s subject to the risks associated with the investment company and its investment performance may depend on the underlying investment company’s performance. The Fund will indirectly pay a proportional share of the investment company’s fees and expenses, while continuing to pay its own management fee to the Adviser, resulting in shareholders absorbing duplicate levels of fees. EFAA The risks of investing in securities of foreign issuers can include fluctuations in foreign currencies, political and economic instability, and foreign taxation issues. The performance of an investment concentrated in issuers of a certain region or country is expected to be closely tied to conditions within that region and to be more volatile than more geographically diversified investments. ADRs and GDRs may be subject to certain of the risks associated with direct investments in the securities of foreign companies. ADRs and GDRs may not track the price of the underlying securities on which they are based, and their value may change materially at times when U.S. markets are not open for trading. Currencies and futures generally are volatile and are not suitable for all investors. Because the Fund may invest in other investment companies, it’s subject to the risks associated with the investment company and its investment performance may depend on the underlying investment company’s performance. The Fund will indirectly pay a proportional share of the investment company’s fees and expenses, while continuing to pay its own management fee to the Adviser, resulting in shareholders absorbing duplicate levels of fees. Important information The information on this site does not constitute a recommendation of any investment strategy or product for a particular investor. Investors should consult a financial advisor/financial consultant before making any investment decisions. Shares are not individually redeemable and owners of the Shares may acquire those Shares from the Fund and tender those Shares for redemption to the Fund in Creation Unit aggregations only, typically consisting of 10,000, 20,000, 25,000, 50,000, 80,000, 100,000 or 150,000 Shares.
