As of July 25, 2025 · prospectusObjective. Columbia Short Duration High Yield ETF (the Fund) seeks to provide shareholders with a high level of current income.
Strategy. The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (ETF).

The Fund may also invest in investment grade debt instruments and in debt instruments of foreign issuers. Corporate debt instruments in which the Fund invests are typically unsecured, with a fixed-rate of interest, and are usually issued by companies or similar entities to provide financing for their operations, or other activities. Floating rate loans, which are another form of financing, are typically secured, with interest rates that adjust or float periodically (normally on a daily, monthly, quarterly or semiannual basis by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium). Secured debt instruments are ordinarily secured by specific collateral or assets of the issuer or borrower such that holders of these instruments will have claims senior to the claims of other parties who hold unsecured instruments. Under normal circumstances, the Funds dollar-weighted average effective maturity will be five years or less, and its duration will be three years or less. The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it can invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of fewer issuers than can a diversified fund.
