A new policy proposal from Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran suggests shrinking the Fed's balance sheet while potentially allowing lower interest rates. This could challenge floating-rate bank loan ETFs such as Invesco Senior Loan ETF (BKLN), SPDR Blackstone Senior Loan ETF (SRLN), and iShares Floating Rate Bond ETF (FLOT), which have benefited from rising rates due to their floating coupons. If rates fall, these ETFs may generate less income, making them less attractive compared to fixed-rate bond ETFs. However, Miran's plan to relax liquidity rules and normalize Fed facility access could support credit markets by lowering default rates and stabilizing inflows, offering some offset. Investors may rotate from floating-rate ETFs to duration-sensitive fixed-rate bond ETFs if rates decline, shifting the investment thesis from rate hedging to credit spread plays.
