Cullen Capital Management Unveils Innovative First ETF (NYSE: DIVP)

New ETF offers dividends and premium income for investors

NEW YORK , March 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In a significant addition to its discipline value style investment suite, Cullen Capital Management, LLC, with $23 billion AUA and 100% private ownership, is proud to announce the NYSE launch of their Cullen Enhanced Equity Income ETF (NYSE: DIVP). DIVP emulates the success of Cullen's Enhanced Equity Income strategy, historically only available through their separately managed account and mutual fund offerings. DIVP offers a distinctive income-generating approach through the combination of dividends and covered-call premiums. Cullen Capital selected SEI's Advisors' Inner Circle Fund to launch their first ETF. 

"After 13 years of successfully running a dividend equity, covered call separately managed account, there was strong client demand to offer the same strategy in an ETF vehicle. The launch of DIVP reflects our dedication to meeting our clients' needs and interests," said Jeff Cullen, Managing Director. 

DIVP stands out by integrating dividends from equity holdings with premiums from covered call options written on approximately 25-40% of the underlying securities. DIVP aims to offer a higher income potential compared to traditional equity-income investments. 

Emphasizing capital appreciation alongside income generation, DIVP maintains active equity market participation. By writing call options on a portion of the portfolio, the ETF enables the potential for upside market participation, in addition to income generation.

At the helm of DIVP is a seasoned portfolio management team (experienced team of 20 investment professionals), committed to actively monitoring and adjusting the portfolio to seize opportunities and mitigate risks.

"We partnered with SEI because they offer us a comprehensive operational platform that can efficiently address the unique aspects associated with ETF product strategy, distribution and compliance," said Jeff Cullen.

Cullen Capital's introduction of DIVP reinforces the firm's dedication to innovative investment solutions. This product seeks long-term capital appreciation and current income and reflects Cullen Capital's ongoing commitment to client needs. 

Cullen Capital Management, LLC is headquartered in New York.
