October 22, 2026
In our latest ETF video series, Paul Heffernan, CEO of Waystone ETFs sits down with Matt Kaufman, Global Head of ETFs at Calamos, to discuss the Calamos Autocallable Income UCITS ETF (Ticker: CAKE) - the first of its kind in Europe - and how the ETF structure is being used to bring new investment strategies to market.
The conversation explores how the Calamos autocallable ETF strategy works, the role of laddering and index construction, and how the ETF structure can be used to deliver strategies that have traditionally been accessed through structured products. Paul and Matt also discuss the evolution of the European ETF market and the opportunities created by the UCITS framework for global distribution.
