DEFR is designed for investors seeking a smarter way to allocate to fixed income, one that maximizes tax efficiency, enhances risk-adjusted return potential, and adapts to evolving market conditions. Instead of relying solely on traditional bonds, DEFR utilizes a sophisticated, tax-efficient strategy that combines fixed income exposure with options. This approach aims to generate a return stream with a similar risk profile as traditional bonds but with distinct advantages over conventional methods.
