NEW YORK, March 19, 2026 – J.P. Morgan Asset Management today announced the launch of two new active ETFs on the Nasdaq Exchange as part of the firm’s landmark derivative income suite, the JPMorgan Equity Premium Yield ETF (ROCY) and the JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Yield ETF (ROCQ).

With the introduction of ROCY and ROCQ, J.P. Morgan is now the only ETF provider offering a comprehensive suite of actively managed derivative income strategies, with three distinct methods of treating options premium.

Led by Hamilton Reiner, CIO of the U.S. Core Equity Team and Head of U.S. Equity Derivatives, both ROCY and ROCQ will be managed by members of the U.S. Core Equity Group, who oversee the suite of Hedged Equity and Equity Premium Income strategies, including JPMorgan Equity Premium Income (JEPI) and JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPQ).

“Clients want practical tools that work in real-world markets,” said Hamilton Reiner. “ROCY and ROCQ are designed to seek tax-deferred yield via return of capital^1,2, smooth the ride relative to broad benchmarks, and stay engaged for upside—so investors can focus on progress toward their goals, not just the next headline.”

Both strategies integrate J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s fundamental research with a disciplined options overlay. The teams actively manage the underlying equity portfolios – ROCY invests significantly in U.S. large cap core equity securities, while ROCQ focuses on NASDAQ-listed securities – and actively manage the call-option overlay by selling call spreads³ to generate yield and allowing the funds to re-participate in strong up markets.⁴

The funds’ yield represents the annualized distributions paid to investors as a percentage of its net asset value (NAV). Distributions may be derived from multiple sources, including portfolio dividends, some capital appreciation, and premiums generated through the options overlay.¹

“The launch of ROCY and ROCQ expands our derivative income suite, allowing investors to choose the most appropriate solution that fits their objectives, while leveraging the skilled investment team and research capabilities from JEPI and JEPQ,” said J.P. Morgan Asset Management Global Head of ETFs, Travis Spence.

Each fund is priced competitively at 35 basis points.

J.P. Morgan Asset Management is the largest issuer of active ETFs globally⁵, reflecting our commitment to delivering innovative investment solutions and strong results for clients.

¹Yield represents annualized fund distributions, which may be taxed as qualified or ordinary dividends, capital gains, or return of capital. The funds’ investment strategies seek to generate return of capital distributions, but no assurance can be given. In certain market environments, essentially all distributions could be taxable to an investor as ordinary dividend income. Amounts paid in excess of an ETF’s current and accumulated earnings are treated for tax purposes first as a tax-free return of capital until an investor’s cost basis is reduced to zero; further amounts are taxed as capital gains. Return of capital isn’t taxed when received but lowers an investor’s basis, which can increase future taxes (or reduce losses) when you sell. Any distribution reduces the Fund’s NAV.

²Return of capital (ROC), which is not guaranteed, refers to the portion of a distribution from an investment that is not considered taxable income, because, for tax purposes, it is treated as a return of part of the original investment. ROC distributions are not taxed currently; however, they will generally lower an investor’s adjusted basis in an investment. By lowering basis, such distributions will ultimately result in a proportionately higher capital gain (or a smaller capital loss) when the investor sells the shares. Some investors might prefer the ability to delay taxes. ROC distributions in excess of an investor’s tax basis in the investment will generally be treated for tax purposes as capital gain. Total return is derived from dividends, option premiums, and capital appreciation.

³Selling call options brings in upfront cash and can lower risk, but it caps upside if stocks rise. Buying call options risks losing the premium if they expire worthless. In unusual or illiquid markets, these strategies may not work as intended, may not reduce volatility as hoped, and can result in losses.

⁴Risks: The price of equity securities may fluctuate rapidly or unpredictably due to factors affecting individual companies, as well as changes in economic or political conditions. These price movements may result in loss of your investment. This investment relies on a proprietary fundamental data science enabled selection approach that utilizes proprietary techniques to process, analyze, and combine a wide variety of information to forecast the financial prospects of each security and to assess key risks. There is no guarantee that this approach will result in effective investment decisions or that it will perform as intended.
