The FT Vest Buffered Allocation Defensive ETF (BUFT) is designed to help investors safeguard their capital. This objective is achieved by allocating nearly all of its assets to a selection of other exchange-traded funds, referred to as "Underlying ETFs." These Underlying ETFs are structured to deliver returns linked to the price performance of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), incorporating a pre-set ceiling on potential gains (a "cap") and a specific safeguard against losses (a "buffer") from SPY's movements over a defined one-year period.
