John Hancock Core Plus Bond ETF

JHCP aims to balance income with prudent risk management, constructing a diverse bond portfolio, allowing up to 20% in high-yield bonds for income potential. Most investments, however, maintain investment-grade quality with corporate, mortgage-backed, and US government bonds. The portfolio does not engage with foreign currency-denominated investments and considers ESG factors in its decision-making process, adding an extra layer of scrutiny and responsibility. The fund manager employs sector and industry analysis alongside in-depth research to pinpoint undervalued opportunities. Though JHCPs maturity and duration typically align with broader bond market averages, adjustments may be made during volatile periods for protection. Derivatives help manage risk and efficiency, without using leverage. No more than 10% of assets are held in cash. This strategy aims to deliver consistent income while managing risks responsibly.
