About the vault

The vault takes stablecoin deposits and allocates them into tokenized exposure to PGIM AAA CLO ETF, an actively managed fund that seeks to provide capital preservation and current income by investing primarily in USD-denominated AAA-rated collateralized loan obligations (CLOs).

A CLO is a securitization backed by a diversified pool of senior secured corporate loans that are typically floating-rate. The pool's cash flows are split into tranches of varying seniority, with the AAA tranche sitting at the top of the capital stack. Subordinated tranches below AAA absorb any losses ahead of it. The ETF targets this most senior layer, which has historically offered higher yield than comparably-rated investment grade corporate bonds with low interest rate sensitivity.

The strategy is designed to deliver floating-rate yield from a diversified pool of AAA-rated CLO tranches. Income generated by the underlying CLO holdings is automatically reinvested into the vault, with returns reflected directly in the vault token price rather than distributed, providing passive exposure to senior secured corporate credit income.

Notes

Yield source: Income flows from interest payments of the underlying senior secured corporate loans, with the senior tranche paid first from the pool's cash flows ahead of subordinated investors. The floating-rate structure resets yield as short-term rates move, while the senior position in the capital stack limits exposure to credit losses from the underlying loan pool.

Risks: CLO is exposed to U.S. dollar-denominated AAA-rated CLO tranches, where performance depends on the credit performance of the underlying senior secured corporate loans and the structural protections built into each CLO. Risks may include credit losses on underlying loans, downgrades of CLO tranches, and reduced liquidity in the CLO secondary market. Although CLO invests principally in AAA-rated tranches, AAA ratings do not constitute a guarantee of credit quality and may be downgraded.
