A new ETF designed to shield investors from the risk of market volatility starts trading on Wednesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Calamos S&P 500 Structured Alt Protection ETF (CPSM) promises to deliver investors “100% downside protection” against the index’s losses over a one-year outcome period, according the firm’s news release.<\/p>\n

Calamos’ head of ETFs Matt Kaufman helped build the new product.<\/p>\n

“There’s no tricks. There’s no magic,” he told CNBC’s “ETF Edge<\/a>” on Monday. “This is the secret sauce.”<\/p>\n

Kaufman explained the new ETF enters into three options positions. Investors in the fund are subject to limits on the extent to which they can capture gains tied to the S&P 500<\/a>
