Manulife Smart Enhanced Yield ETF and Manulife Smart US Enhanced Yield ETF deliver exposure to dividend securities and covered-call strategies to provide investors with multiple income streams
Portfolio managers to combine 94 years of investment experience on these strategies
TORONTO, June 4, 2024 /CNW/ - Manulife Investment Management (Manulife IM) launched two new actively managed Manulife Smart Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), which will begin trading today on the Cboe Canada exchange. The new ETFs, the Manulife Smart Enhanced Yield ETF (CYLD) and the Manulife Smart US Enhanced Yield ETF (UYLD) (and UYLD's hedged, unhedged and USD units) are strategies that combine exposure to dividend securities with options derivatives to provide market participants with multiple income streams in a single ETF. Manulife IM's Multi-Asset Solutions Team and its systematic equity beta team will actively manage these new ETFs.
CYLD aims to provide a steady flow of income and long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of Canadian dividend-paying securities. CYLD will employ a Manulife IM proprietary quality dividend screen to select securities that have high and sustainable dividends, or dividends that are expected to grow over time, to pursue higher risk-adjusted returns. Additionally, CYLD's portfolio will include at times writing covered-call options or cash-covered put options on a percentage of its holdings to generate additional income streams for the ETF's shareholders. CYLD will distribute income monthly.
Meanwhile, UYLD possesses a similar investment objective for U.S. dividend-paying securities, also distributing income monthly. UYLD will seek to hedge substantially all of the foreign currency exposure through investing in derivatives and offers an unhedged solution (UYLD.B).
"We're pleased to be leveraging the experience of Manulife Investment Management's multi-asset solutions and systematic equity beta teams and the success of our original dividend ETFs to expand our capabilities in high demand asset classes and provide alpha at a competitive price," said Jordy Chilcott, head of retail intermediary distribution, Canada, Manulife Investment Management.

Together they have more than 94 years of combined industry experience.
"We're excited to grow our ETF lineup with two new solutions for investors looking for income and long-term capital appreciation," said Mark Bankay, head of ETFs, Manulife Investment Management. "Utilizing a proprietary call-put strategy, the Manulife Smart Enhanced Yield ETF and Manulife Smart U.S. Enhanced Yield ETF can be useful solutions for advisors and individual investors alike to gain some equity exposure upside while mitigating downside market risks."
With these launches, Manulife IM's ETFs total 20 funds with $3.3B CAD under management1. In addition to the ETFs announced today, they include:
