About FFQUUX

First Trust 10481 Corporate Investment Grade Laddered Portfolio, Series 21 is a unit investment trust designed to deliver current income and emphasize capital preservation through a diversified, laddered portfolio of investment‑grade corporate bonds. The trust allocates bonds across staggered maturities, creating a systematic “ladder” that helps manage interest‑rate risk, smooth cash flows, and support reinvestment as securities mature. It focuses on high‑quality issuers across sectors such as financials, industrials, consumer, and utilities, seeking to balance credit quality with duration exposure. By distributing income regularly and holding bonds to maturity barring credit events, the strategy aims to reduce volatility versus longer‑duration or lower‑quality credit approaches. As a finite‑life trust, it follows a defined investment period and termination date, offering transparency on holdings, ratings, and expected cash flows throughout its life cycle. The portfolio’s role in the market is to provide a packaged, rules‑based access point to corporate bond income for investors seeking a structured, time‑bounded fixed income solution without the need for ongoing security selection or trading.
