ABOUT THIS FUND
The Voya Multi-Sector Income ETF (VMSB) aims to provide investors with both substantial current income and long-term capital appreciation. This actively managed fund allocates capital across a diverse range of income-generating assets, including corporate and government bonds (sourced globally, even from emerging markets), various types of loans, asset-backed securities, and short-term money market instruments. VMSB maintains significant flexibility in its deployment of debt instruments and derivatives. Its portfolio typically features an average duration, reflecting its interest rate risk profile, ranging from 0 to 10 years. The fund is not limited by credit ratings, allowing it to invest in securities across the entire credit quality spectrum. To optimize its holdings, the fund may employ specialized trading strategies such as delayed delivery transactions, forward commitments (including "to-be-announced" or TBA trades), repurchase agreements (buy backs), and dollar rolls. Derivatives are also integral to its approach, utilized for managing risk (hedging), making dynamic tactical adjustments, or boosting overall returns. The investment team's robust management process integrates broad top-down macroeconomic insights with detailed bottom-up analysis. This comprehensive methodology guides decisions on sector allocation, individual security selection, portfolio duration, and positioning along the yield curve. Their efforts are supported by proprietary research, advanced quantitative models, rigorous stress testing, and continuous risk oversight.
