8.42%

The majority, and possibly all, of this distribution will be
paid out of net investment income earned by the Fund. A portion of
this distribution may come from net short-term realized capital
gains or return of capital. The final determination of the source
and tax status of all 2024 distributions will be made after the end
of 2024 and will be provided on Form 1099-DIV.
The Fund has a practice of seeking to maintain a relatively
stable monthly distribution which may be changed periodically.
First Trust Advisors L.P. ("FTA") believes the practice may benefit
the Fund's market price and premium/discount to the Fund's NAV. The
practice has no impact on the Fund's investment strategy and may
reduce the Fund's NAV.

Principal Risk Factors: Risks are inherent in all investing.
Certain risks applicable to the Fund are identified below, which
includes the risk that you could lose some or all of your
investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the
Fund are spelled out in the Fund's annual shareholder reports. The
order of the below risk factors does not indicate the significance
of any particular risk factor. The Fund also files reports, proxy
statements and other information that is available for
review.
Past performance is no assurance of future results. Investment
return and market value of an investment in the Fund will
fluctuate. Shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their
original cost. There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment
objectives will be achieved. The Fund may not be appropriate for
all investors.
Market risk is the risk that a particular investment, or shares
of a fund in general may fall in value. Investments held by the
Fund are subject to market fluctuations caused by real or perceived
adverse economic conditions, political events, regulatory factors
or market developments, changes in interest rates and perceived
trends in securities prices. Shares of a fund could decline in
value or underperform other investments as a result. In addition,
local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism,
market manipulation, government defaults, government shutdowns,
regulatory actions, political changes, diplomatic developments, the
imposition of sanctions and other similar measures, spread of
infectious disease or other public health issues, recessions,
natural disasters or other events could have significant negative
impact on a fund and its investments.
Current market conditions risk is the risk that a particular
investment, or shares of the fund in general, may fall in value due
to current market conditions. As a means to fight inflation, the
Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks have raised
interest rates and expect to continue to do so, and the Federal
Reserve has announced that it intends to reverse previously
implemented quantitative easing. Recent and potential future bank
failures could result in disruption to the broader banking industry
or markets generally and reduce confidence in financial
institutions and the economy as a whole, which may also heighten
market volatility and reduce liquidity. Ongoing armed conflicts
between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Hamas and
other militant groups in the Middle East, have caused and could
continue to cause significant market disruptions and volatility
within the markets in Russia, Europe, the Middle East and the
United States. The hostilities and sanctions resulting from those
hostilities have and could continue to have a significant impact on
certain fund investments as well as fund performance and liquidity.
The COVID-19 global pandemic, or any future public health crisis,
and the ensuing policies enacted by governments and central banks
have caused and may continue to cause significant volatility and
uncertainty in global financial markets, negatively impacting
global growth prospects.
Preferred/hybrid and debt securities in which the Fund invests
are subject to various risks, including credit risk, interest rate
risk, and call risk. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of a
security will be unable or unwilling to make dividend, interest
and/or principal payments when due and that the value of a security
may decline as a result. Credit risk may be heightened for the Fund
because it invests in below investment grade securities, which
involve greater risks than investment grade securities, including
the possibility of dividend or interest deferral, default or
bankruptcy. Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of
fixed-rate securities in the Fund will decline because of rising
market interest rates. Call risk is the risk that performance could
be adversely impacted if an issuer calls higher-yielding debt
instruments held by the Fund. These securities are also subject to
issuer risk, floating rate and fixed-to-floating rate risk,
prepayment risk, reinvestment risk, subordination risk and
liquidity risk.
The risks associated with trust preferred securities typically
include the financial condition of the financial institution that
creates the trust, as the trust typically has no business
operations other than holding the subordinated debt issued by the
financial institution and issuing the trust preferred securities
and common stock backed by the subordinated debt.
Interest rate risk is the risk that securities will decline in
value because of changes in market interest rates. The duration of
a security will be expected to change over time with changes in
market factors and time to maturity. Although the Fund seeks to
maintain a duration, under normal market circumstances, excluding
the effects of leverage, of between three and eight years, if the
effect of the Fund's use of leverage was included in calculating
duration, it could result in a longer duration for the Fund.
Because the Fund is concentrated in the financials sector, it
will be more susceptible to adverse economic or regulatory
occurrences affecting this sector, such as changes in interest
rates, loan concentration and competition.
Investment in non-U.S. securities is subject to the risk of
currency fluctuations and to economic and political risks
associated with such foreign countries.
Investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market
countries are considered speculative and there is a heightened risk
of investing in emerging markets securities. Financial and other
reporting by companies and government entities also may be less
reliable in emerging market countries. Shareholder claims that are
available in the U.S., as well as regulatory oversight and
authority that is common in the U.S., including for claims based on
fraud, may be difficult or impossible for shareholders of
securities in emerging market countries or for U.S. authorities to
pursue.
Contingent Capital Securities provide for mandatory conversion
into common stock of the issuer under certain circumstances, which
may limit the potential for income and capital appreciation and,
under certain circumstances, may result in complete loss of the
value of the investment.
Reverse repurchase agreements involve leverage risk, the risk
that the purchaser fails to return the securities as agreed upon,
files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent. The Fund may be
restricted from taking normal portfolio actions during such time,
could be subject to loss to the extent that the proceeds of the
agreement are less than the value of securities subject to the
agreement and may experience adverse tax consequences.
Use of leverage can result in additional risk and cost, and can
magnify the effect of any losses.
The risks of investing in the Fund are spelled out in the
shareholder reports and other regulatory filings.

investment recommendation for, or advice to, any specific person.
By providing this information, First Trust is not undertaking to
give advice in any fiduciary capacity within the meaning of ERISA,
