What Is LKOR?

Sponsored by Northern Trust Asset Management, the FlexShares Crdt-Scrd US Lng Corp Bd ETF (LKOR) aims to reflect the performance, prior to expenses and fees, of the Northern Trust Credit-Scored US Long Corporate Bond IndexSM.

As many investors are aware, rates have been increased by the Federal Reserve since 2022. For those invested in long-duration bonds like LKOR, these changes in interest rates can be particularly concerning. The bond's maturity duration directly affects its sensitivity to interest rate shifts. With LKOR's focus on bonds with longer durations, its exposure to credit risk intensifies when interest rates rise.

Current data from Morningstar shows that FlexShares Crdt-Scrd US Lng Corp Bd ETF (LKOR) dropped in share price by 12% over the last year and more than 18% in the past five years.

Potential Claims for LKOR Investors Based On Omissions, Overconcentration

If bonds were portrayed as a "safe" investment by a financial advisor without properly disclosing the associated risks, especially during periods of historically low yields, investors might have grounds for a claim. Bonds with longer maturities are more susceptible to the impacts of fluctuating interest rates. Over-concentration in long-term bonds in a low yield environment because of an advisor's recommendation can lead to substantial losses.

Financial advisors are obligated to provide a series of disclosures before suggesting bonds. This includes information like the risks, commissions or markups, the prices and yields, and bond payments.
