The Invesco AAA CLO Floating Rate Note ETF has declared a monthly distribution of $0.0945 per share [1].
This payout reflects the fund's strategy to distribute earnings generated by its underlying Collateralized Loan Obligation assets to investors as part of a regular monthly policy [1]. For income-focused investors, these distributions provide a steady stream of liquidity based on the performance of high-quality floating rate notes.
The distribution is scheduled to be payable on May 22, 2024 [2]. To qualify for the payment, investors must have been shareholders of record as of May 18, 2024 [2].
The ex-dividend date for this specific distribution was also set for May 18, 2024 [2]. This means that shares traded after this date would not be eligible for the current monthly payout.
While the fund announced the $0.0945 per share figure [1], other reporting on the distribution has shown variance in the monthly amounts, with some figures cited as $0.1169 or $0.1504 per share [1]. The current declaration focuses on the May 2024 cycle.
CLOs are structured financial products that pool various loans to create a diversified portfolio of debt. By focusing on AAA-rated notes, the ETF seeks to minimize credit risk while capturing the benefits of floating interest rates, which adjust based on market benchmarks.

This distribution confirms the ETF's role as a yield-generating vehicle for investors seeking exposure to the CLO market without managing individual securities. Because the fund invests in floating rate notes, the distribution amounts are sensitive to broader interest rate movements, meaning payouts may fluctuate as the underlying loan benchmarks shift.
