Commentary
Structured product issuance remained elevated in Q1 2026, with equity-linked issuance reaching approximately $59B vs. $45B in Q1 2025 (+14% YoY). Autocallables remained the most widely used payoff structure, representing ~60% of issuance.
Equity markets experienced broad-based weakness in March, with increased volatility driven by geopolitical tensions, rate uncertainty, and growth concerns. The S&P 500 TR Index declined -4.98% during the month.
ATCL returned -3.15% in March, outperforming the S&P 500 TR Index and capturing approximately 63% of the market downside. This relative performance was primarily driven by the portfolio’s current positioning, with a weighted average mark-to-market level of 92.89%, contributing to lower equity sensitivity during the period, along with the ongoing accrual of coupon income within the portfolio.
Portfolio positioning remains constructive, with all positions currently above their coupon barriers, supporting full coupon eligibility across the portfolio.
ATCL paid its first distribution in March, with an annualized distribution rate of 13.81%, of which 91.1% was estimated as Return of Capital.
