What does MGOV invest in?

The First Trust Intermediate Government Opportunities ETF endeavors to achieve the greatest possible total return over the long term. Under typical market conditions, the fund will commit at least 80% of its net assets, including any capital borrowed for investment purposes, to debt instruments issued or backed by the United States government, its agencies, or government-sponsored entities, collectively known as "Government Securities." Its holdings in these Government Securities encompass publicly traded U.S. Treasury products, such as bonds, notes, and bills, alongside mortgage-backed instruments like pass-through securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS). The fund also possesses the flexibility to allocate capital to exchange-traded funds that primarily invest in Government Securities, as well as derivative instruments including futures contracts, options, and swap agreements that derive their value from Government Securities. Additionally, the fund may acquire mortgage-related securities via "to-be-announced" transactions, which include mortgage dollar rolls, and can invest in both fixed-rate and floating-rate securities.
