ALPS Nautilus SMR, Nuclear & Technology ETF (SMRF) is an actively managed, sector-focused thematic ETF that targets companies across the global nuclear energy and small modular reactor (SMR) value chain. The fund concentrates on firms integral to the development, manufacture and operation of advanced nuclear technologies—including reactor designers and manufacturers, component and fuel suppliers, engineering and construction companies, utilities and services supporting plant operations and waste management—seeking to capture growth from the commercialization of SMRs and broader nuclear expansion. Recognizing the increasing role of digitalization in next‑generation energy infrastructure, SMRF may allocate up to 25% of its portfolio to artificial intelligence and enabling technology companies whose products support reactor design, operational optimization, predictive maintenance and control systems. To enhance yields and manage portfolio exposures, the fund also employs a call and put options strategy to generate additional income, a technique that can produce premium income while potentially affecting upside participation. With a global investment remit and active stock selection, SMRF blends thematic growth exposure to the emerging nuclear and SMR ecosystem with a technology tilt and an income-oriented overlay—making it suited for investors seeking concentrated exposure to the nuclear energy renaissance; as a focused thematic ETF, it carries the concentration and options-related risks typical of such strategies.
