Replay: Resilient Covered Call Strategies During Severe Market Volatility Wednesday, May 14, 2025 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EDT
Covered call strategies have surged in popularity as investors seek to generate option income and reduce volatility– but not all covered call ETFs are built the same. Many of the most significant and most widely held covered call funds are heavily concentrated in U.S. equities, leaving investors vulnerable when domestic markets stumble.
That vulnerability has been on full display in 2025. With the YTD pullback in U.S. equities, several of the most popular covered call ETFs have exhibited negative performance.1
Join KraneShares COO Jonathan Shelon for an in-depth webinar on how to construct more resilient covered call portfolios utilizing the KraneShares KWEB Covered Call Strategy ETF (Ticker: KLIP), exploring:
- Why U.S.-centric covered call strategies have struggled this year
- The benefits of incorporating international equity exposure for improved diversification
- How KLIP has delivered strong performance and compelling options income in today’s choppy markets
- Practical insights for allocating a portion of your portfolio to global covered call ETFs to help navigate market volatility

Notional Amount: Refers to the nominal or face value of a financial instrument, typically used to calculate payments made on that instrument. It’s often used in the context of derivatives, like swaps, where the underlying principal is not exchanged but is used to determine the interest rate payments. This amount is considered “notional” because it’s the amount upon which calculations are based, not the actual amount exchanged.
