if you want a safer FRN exposure, might as well just buy the new ETF available from BetaShares for Senior Floating Bonds (QPON:ASX), MER of around ~0.20%. (They are senior bonds, ranking almost equal to deposit while being floating in nature, unlike deposits which are fixed).

The other funds are investing in lower capital structures (sub/T1 or even in P2P loans) and typically charges fees like Hedge Funds. Obviously, returns would be much higher. But obviously it is much riskier than senior bonds. DYOR.

not Smarter Money. average portfolio credit rating A+, mainly banks.
they won't touch the lower structures

another FRN ETF is FLOT , run by Van Eck, with MER 0.22%
