Why invest in YCLO from India
What YCLO holds
The Franklin BSP CLO ETF (YCLO) is an actively managed ETF that aims to provide capital preservation and current income, and may offer diversification benefits versus traditional fixed income. The fund invests primarily in investment-grade tranches of U.S. and European collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) across both primary and secondary markets.
Hold a dollar asset
YCLO is priced in US dollars, so a weaker rupee adds to what it's worth in rupees. The rupee depreciated over 85% against the dollar between 2010 and 2025.
Buy a fraction of a unit
Buy by amount, not by unit, and get the matching fraction of one YCLO unit. There is no minimum trade size.
Paasa handles the paperwork
Investing abroad brings paperwork with it: remittance filings, capital gains reporting, foreign asset disclosure. Paasa prepares all of it for you. Your India-ready tax reports arrive at year end, ready to file.
Planning to hold more than $60,000 in US ETFs? Here's what US estate tax means for you.
US-domiciled ETFs held in your own name fall under US estate tax rules. If your US holdings cross $60,000, the amount above that can be taxed at up to 40% when the account passes to your family.
A UCITS ETF tracking a similar market sits outside US estate tax.
