FLTR: A Fair Floating Rate ETF, But Lagging Inflation

  • VanEck IG Floating Rate ETF offers a 5% yield from investment-grade floating rate loans. FLTR has 50% exposure in ex-US developed countries and is diversified in holdings, but very concentrated in financials. FLTR has outperformed its closest competitors over the last 9 years, but inflation has outpaced its total return since inception.
