BMO Covered Call Utilities ETF (ZWU.TO)
Company overview
The BMO Covered Call Utilities ETF aims to offer investors diversified access to an equally weighted portfolio of companies operating in the utilities, telecommunications, and pipeline sectors. A fundamental aspect of its approach involves generating income through the strategic sale of call options. These options are carefully selected based on their implied volatility and are consistently written with strike prices above the current market value (out-of-the-money), with the quantity of options correlating to each security's proportion within the fund. The premiums received from these option sales offer some cushioning against potential downward movements in asset values. The fund's underlying investments undergo rebalancing every June and a complete reconstitution each December, while expiring options are routinely rolled into new positions. Furthermore, given ZWU's structure as a fund of funds, its management fees are offset by those already incurred within the underlying investment products it holds.
