What is WBND?

The Western Asset Total Return ETF is an actively managed strategy that seeks to maximize total return consistent with prudent investment management and liquidity needs.

Debt instruments include loans and similar debt instruments. However, at the fund s inception, the fund expects to invest principally in the Principal Investments except for work out securities, non-convertible preferred stock and warrants.
