Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – November 4, 2025) – Evolve Funds Group Inc. (“Evolve” or the “Manager“) is pleased to announce that it has filed a preliminary prospectus with the Canadian securities regulators for plans to list the Evolve Big Six Canadian Banks UltraYield Index ETF (TSX: SIXY) (“SIXY” or the “Evolve Fund“) on the Toronto Stock Exchange. SIXY aims to offer investors modestly levered exposure to a portfolio of Canada’s ‘Big Six’ banks, Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD), Bank of Montreal (BMO), Scotiabank, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC), and National Bank of Canada, with a covered call strategy.
“We’re excited to announce the filing of a preliminary prospectus for SIXY, the first sector-focused addition to our UltraYield lineup,” said Raj Lala, President and CEO at Evolve. “SIXY provides investors with exposure to Canada’s Big Six banks, while enhancing yield through a covered call strategy and modest leverage, with distributions paid twice per month.”
SIXY seeks to provide exposure to an equal-weighted portfolio of Canadian banks while generating enhanced income through a covered call strategy. The Evolve Fund aims to replicate, to the extent reasonably possible before fees and expenses, up to a 1.33 times multiple of the performance of the Solactive Equal Weight Canada Banks Index, or a successor index. To enhance yield and manage risk, SIXY will employ a covered call option writing program at the discretion of the Manager. The level of covered call option writing may vary based on market conditions.
SIXY will use modest leverage in order to seek to achieve its investment objective. Leverage will be created through the use of cash borrowings and/or Derivatives, or as otherwise permitted under applicable securities legislation.
Cash distributions, if any, on SIXY will be paid at least twice per month, with the possibility of more frequent distributions at the Manager’s discretion.
