FUND SUMMARY

Claymore Global Monthly Advantaged Dividend ETF has been designed to replicate the performance of the Zacks Global Multi-Asset Income Index, net of expenses. The Zacks Global Multi-Asset Income Index selection methodology is designed to identify global companies with potentially high income and superior risk-return profiles as determined by Zacks Investment Research, Inc. (“Zacks”). The Fund, through a Forward Agreement with the National Bank of Canada (NBF), will receive exposure to the securities that comprise the Index. The Claymore Global Monthly Advantaged Dividend ETF will hedge its exposure to U.S. dollars by entering into currency contracts with financial institutions that have an “approved credit rating” as defined in NI 81-102.

The Zacks Global Multi-Asset Income Index is comprised of approximately 250 securities selected, based on a multi-factor research investment strategy, from a universe of global companies, such as,

  • Global dividend-paying equities
  • Global Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”)
  • Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”)
  • US Preferred Stock
  • Income Trusts

The companies in the universe are selected using a proprietary methodology developed by Zacks designed to identify companies with potentially high income and superior risk/return profiles while maintaining industry diversification. This approach is specifically designed to enhance investment applications and investability. The Zacks Global Multi-Asset Income Index is adjusted quarterly to assure timely stock selections.

ETF Forward Agreement Structure
The Fund utilizes an innovative Forward Agreement structure with the National Bank of Canada in order to provide exposure to portfolio of global securities on a tax efficient  basis. By using the Forward Agreement, the income generated by the Global Multi-Asset Income portfolio (generally foreign income) will be recharacterized and paid to Unitholders of the ETF primarily as distributions of return of capital and capital gains.

 

The above diagram is for illustrative purposes only. The forward structure is used to achieve the exposure to the Global Multi-Asset Income Index portfolio. Please see the Prospectus for further information.
