NEOS Investment Strategy & Methodology
Tax-Efficient Income Philosophy
Return of Capital Optimization
Structured distributions often qualify as return of capital, reducing immediate tax liability while maintaining high income levels.
After-Tax Income Focus
Every strategy is designed with after-tax income maximization as the primary objective, not just gross yield.
Professional Management
Sophisticated options overlay strategies managed by experienced professionals, eliminating the complexity for individual investors.
Options Overlay Methodology
Covered Call Writing
Systematic covered call writing on underlying index holdings generates premium income while maintaining broad market exposure.
Dynamic Strike Management
Strike prices and expiration dates are actively managed based on market conditions and volatility to optimize income generation.
Volatility Harvesting
Professional volatility harvesting techniques capture option premiums during periods of elevated market volatility.
Tax Efficiency: The NEOS Advantage
NEOS ETFs are specifically structured to maximize after-tax income through strategic distribution management. A significant portion of distributions may qualify as return of capital, which is not immediately taxable and instead reduces your cost basis in the fund.
