About HYGW
The fund will seek to write call options up to (but not exceeding) the full amount of shares of the underlying fund held in the fund (i.e., the short position in the call option is offset, or “covered,” by the long position the fund holds in shares of the underlying fund). The underlying index utilizes “European-style” call options.
