First Trust Low Duration Opportunities (LMBS)
About First Trust Low Duration Opportunities (LMBS)
Under normal market conditions, the Fund will seek to achieve its investment objectives by investing at least 60 percent of its net assets (including investment borrowings) (the 60 percent Requirement) in mortgage-related debt securities and other mortgage-related instruments (collectively, Mortgage-Related Investments). The Fund normally expects to invest in Mortgage-Related Investments tied to residential and commercial mortgages. Mortgage-Related Investments consist of: (1) residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS); (2) commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS); (3) stripped mortgage-backed securities (SMBS), which are mortgage-backed securities where mortgage payments are divided up between paying the loans principal and paying the loans interest; and (4) collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and real estate mortgage investment conduits (REMICs) where they are divided into multiple classes with each class being entitled to a different share of the principal and/or interest payments received from the pool of underlying assets. Mortgage-Related Investments typically represent an interest in a pool of mortgage loans made by banks and other financial institutions. The individual mortgage loans are packaged or pooled together for sale to investors. As the underlying mortgage loans are paid off, investors receive principal and interest payments. Mortgage-Related Investments may be fixed-rate or adjustable-rate Mortgage-Related Investments (ARMS).
