Angel Oak Capital Advisors’ ETF Platform Surpasses $1 Billion in AUM

In This Article:

Less than two years since inception, the firm’s suite of ETFs continues to grow, finding success in solving for potential gaps in advisor and institutional portfolios

ATLANTA, June 25, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC (Angel Oak), a leading investment management firm focused on securitized credit investing, announced that its exchange-traded fund (ETF) platform, composed of its four actively managed fixed income ETFs and its sub-advisory services, has surpassed $1 billion in assets under management (AUM) since launching in November 2022.

"Reaching the $1 billion mark in just 20 months is a testament to the trust that our clients place in us and our deep expertise in the securitized credit market," said Sreeni Prabhu, Managing Partner and Co-CEO at Angel Oak. "Everyone at Angel Oak is proud of this achievement, and we believe our scale will allow us to help even more investors."

Following the firm’s first ETF launch, Angel Oak UltraShort Income ETF (NYSE: UYLD), Angel Oak also successfully launched Angel Oak Income ETF (NYSE: CARY) and, earlier this year, converted two of its mutual funds into ETFs — Angel Oak High Yield Opportunities ETF (NYSE: AOHY) and Angel Oak Mortgage-Backed Securities ETF (NYSE: MBS). The ETF suite is one of the few in the marketplace offering investors significant exposure to non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities, consumer asset-backed securities and other securitized credit assets with an actively managed approach.

This AUM milestone underscores the robust growth and strong market acceptance of Angel Oak’s innovative investment offerings in a marketplace that was previously starved for securitized credit ETF solutions. By effectively addressing the needs of advisors and institutional investors, the platform offers compelling investment opportunities that seek a distinct combination of strong yield potential with diversification away from traditional fixed-income assets.

"We are grateful for the affirming response from advisors and institutional investors. It has been nothing less than remarkable. We continue to have productive conversations about the role these different solutions can play in a portfolio, especially given the significant premium currently offered by securitized credit," said Ward Bortz, ETF Portfolio Manager and the Head of Distribution for US Wealth. "The asset classes we invest in are often underrepresented in investment portfolios — particularly ETF portfolios. We look forward to helping these investors access securitized credit and the continued growth of our platform."
