Source: FactSet
All data as of 12/31/2020, unless otherwise noted. This represents past performance which is not indicative of future results. We calculate the Volatility Risk Premium as the spread between
the closing price of the VIX Index and the subsequent 1-month realized price volatility of the S&P 500 Index. Each observation is a 1-month period starting on an options expiration date (the
third Friday of the month). As with all investments, loss is possible. See Additional Disclosures at the end of this document. For Institutional Investor Use Only.
