Fund Identity
What it is, who runs it, where it lives.
The Kurv Copper & Mining Enhanced Income ETF seeks to maximize total return..
The Fund primarily invests in derivative instruments on copper and copper-related ETPs (ETFs and ETNs), backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments and Preferred Securities Instruments. It uses futures on copper and option contracts (including FLEX options) on copper-related ETPs to gain exposure, and may also invest directly in copper-related ETFs and securities of companies in the copper mining industry. The Fund employs various option strategies—including covered calls, uncovered calls/puts, spreads, risk reversals, and protective puts—to generate income. At least 80% of net assets are invested in copper, copper-related ETP securities, derivatives on copper or copper-related ETPs, or securities of companies primarily involved in the copper mining industry.

Ordinary Income
The Fund writes (sells) call options on copper-related ETPs to generate income, including both covered and uncovered calls. It may also use synthetic long positions by simultaneously buying call options and selling put options at the same strike and expiry to replicate ETP price movements, with the synthetic long position not exceeding 200% of NAV. FLEX Options with customizable terms are utilized alongside traditional exchange-traded options, all guaranteed for settlement by the OCC.
