About

This Innovator Emerging Markets 10 Buffer ETF (EBUF) is engineered to mirror the performance of the iShares MSCI EM ETF (EEM), though with an established ceiling on potential gains. Its design also incorporates a defensive mechanism, aiming to absorb the initial 10% of any losses incurred within each consecutive three-month outcome period. While the ETF's terms for protection and upside refresh quarterly, it is suitable for indefinite holding.
