CIBC Asset Management launches two CLO-based mutual funds

TORONTO, May 21, 2025 /CNW/ - CIBC (TSX: CM) (NYSE: CM) – CIBC Asset Management (CAM) today announced the launch of the new CIBC Income Advantage Fund and CIBC U.S. Dollar Income Advantage Fund (the "CIBC Income Advantage Funds"). The CIBC Income Advantage Funds give clients the opportunity to invest in high quality Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs) — an income-generating asset class traditionally utilized by institutional investors.

These Funds open the door for income-seeking investors to tap into a professionally managed CLO credit strategy through a familiar mutual fund structure — providing enhanced yield potential, meaningful diversification and a floating rate structure designed to navigate fluctuating interest rates.

"The CIBC Income Advantage Funds reflect our commitment to innovation and access," notes Eric Belanger, President and Chief Executive Officer, CIBC Asset Management Inc. "These Funds bring the best of institutional investing to the clients our advisors serve every day and are designed for today's environment — when income is harder to find, interest rates are unpredictable, and portfolios need to do more."

The CIBC Income Advantage Funds are actively managed by a seasoned investment team with deep experience in structured credit. An ETF Series is also available for the CIBC Income Advantage Fund (ticker: CCLO) that closed its initial offering of units and trades today on CBOE Canada. More details on the ETF Series and CAM's complete ETF line-up can be found on CIBC'S ETF website.

The CIBC Income Advantage Funds, including the ETF Series for the CIBC Income Advantage Fund, are available for purchase today.

Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments.
