BUFH FT Vest Laddered Max Buffer ETF

About this ETF

FT Vest Laddered Max Buffer ETF is an exchange-traded fund designed to offer U.S. large-cap equity exposure while aiming to provide a maximum downside buffer through an innovative laddered structure. The fund achieves this by investing in a portfolio of twelve FT Vest U.S. Equity Max Buffer ETFs, each targeting the returns of the S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) using FLEX Options. Each underlying ETF seeks to deliver returns that match the price movement of SPY, subject to a cap, while protecting against losses up to a predetermined buffer amount over a one-year target outcome period. These outcome periods are staggered monthly, creating a laddered effect which helps reduce timing risk and provides investors with continuous buffered exposure throughout the year. Managed by First Trust Advisors and sub-advised by Vest Financial LLC, the FT Vest Laddered Max Buffer ETF caters to those seeking a balanced approach to potential market upside and downside risk management within the equity markets. This ETF is part of First Trust’s broader suite of target outcome strategies, emphasizing risk mitigation and outcome-oriented investing.
