First Trust Senior Floating Rate Income Fund II
A closed-end investment fund that pooled money from everyday investors to buy senior secured floating-rate corporate loans — loans that pay interest that adjusts as market rates move. Managed by First Trust Advisors and traded on the New York Stock Exchange as FCT, its descriptive name spells out exactly what it did: "II" marked it as the firm's second fund with this loan-focused mandate. Organized as a Massachusetts business trust in 2004, it later merged into the First Trust Flexible Income ETF, carrying its loan portfolio along in the move.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over all recorded history: +4.9K shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
