Episode 5 | THE BUFFERED ETF GUYS | Innovator ETFs Pioneer Defined Outcome Investing & Buffer ETFs

What’s the story behind the rise of defined outcome ETFs and how they could buffer retirement risks? 🎙️ In this episode, Mike Massey and Dallan Maas welcome Jack Nussbaum from Innovator ETFs, a pioneer in the defined outcome ETF and buffered ETF space. Jack shares how Innovator evolved in Wheaton, Illinois, to managing roughly $25 billion in assets today. Learn how the team built a vast lineup of over 150 tickers, offering various levels of downside protection, upside caps, and multiple market reference assets — far beyond the simple S&P 500 strategies of years past. Jack breaks down what makes these ETFs unique: the low transparent costs compared to other risk-managed structures, the tax efficiency benefits of the ETF wrapper, and the way these products remove traditional credit risk often seen with structured notes or annuities. We explore why defined outcome ETFs are resonating with retirees who want some growth but also peace of mind from downside drawdowns, and how even institutions are now replacing complex hedge fund strategies with these easier-to-trade solutions. Jack explains why some advisors were skeptical at first but have warmed up to these strategies during volatile markets, highlighting how investor needs change as retirement approaches. From fee transparency to tax treatment to the role of the Options Clearing Corporation in providing a stable options market, this conversation brings practical insights for anyone curious about buffering risks in their equity or bond exposures. 👉 We do not endorse any product or recommend any specific investments.
