Overview

Investment Strategy:

The KraneShares China Internet & Covered Call Strategy ETF (ticker: KLIP) follows a “covered call” or “buy-write” strategy. KLIP buys shares of the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (ticker: KWEB) and “writes” or “sells” corresponding call options on KWEB. Both KLIP and KWEB are benchmarked to the CSI Overseas China Internet Index, which tracks the performance of the investable universe of publicly traded China-based companies in the Internet sector. KLIP can generate option income.

Covered Call ETF Features:

  • A covered call ETF is an exchange-traded fund that generates option income by writing options on stocks or ETFs.
  • Covered call ETFs manage the options exposure for investors, which can be more economical and time efficient than buying individual stock options.
  • Writing covered calls may produce higher yields during periods of market volatility.

KLIP Features:

  • KLIP sells covered call options on KWEB, an established ETF with a deep options market.
  • KWEB provides exposure to the China internet sector, which has historically been more volatile than the US internet / technology sector. KLIP has the potential to provide higher yields than covered call strategies based on the US and other markets.
  • Combining allocations to both KLIP and KWEB can help produce a targeted growth and option income strategy by maintaining upside while trading performance uncertainty for more stable distributions.
  • KLIP provides monthly distributions.

This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus. Investors should read it carefully before investing or sending money.

Distribution Rate is the annualized payout, expressed as a percentage of NAV, that an investor would receive, assuming that the latest monthly distribution remained the same over the next twelve (12) months. Distribution Rate may include return of capital, ordinary dividends, or capital gain. Distributions may coincide with a decline in NAV. The Distribution Rate is representative of a single distribution and does not indicate total return. Future distributions may differ significantly from the latest distribution and are not guaranteed. For the Fund’s fiscal year to date, please refer here for the SEC 19a Notice with a breakdown of each monthly distribution. Please note the Fund’s distributions include return of capital. For the purposes of the SEC 19a Notice, options income is excluded from the calculation of net investment income.

For questions about KLIP distributions, please refer to the FAQ.

30-day SEC Yield is a standardized yield calculation used to compare the yield of mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and other investment options. It represents the yield an investor would receive in the form of interest or dividends over the course of a 30-day period, assuming that dividends and interest are reinvested. ​
