Re: Exchange Listed Funds Trust
File Nos. 333-180871 and 811-22700
Dear Ms. Brutlag:
This letter responds to your
comments regarding the registration statement filed on Form N-1A for Exchange Listed Funds Trust (the “Trust”)
with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) on October 4, 2023 (the “Registration
Statement”). The Registration Statement relates to the Bancreek U.S. Large Cap ETF (the “Fund”), a series
of the Trust. Capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined, have the meanings ascribed to them in the Registration Statement.
Comment
1
Please supplementally provide
the Staff with the Fund’s ticker symbol and completed fee table and expense example numbers at least one week before the Registration
Statement is effective.
Response
to Comment 1
Pursuant to the Staff’s
comment, a completed fee table and expense example has been set forth on Exhibit A. The ticker symbol for the Fund will be: BCUS.
Comment
2
Please consider reordering
the principal risks for the Fund to prioritize those that are most likely to affect the Fund’s net asset value, yield, and total
return (see ADI 2019-08), following which the remaining risks may be alphabetized.
Response
to Comment 2
The Trust notes that alphabetically
ordering the principal risks allows shareholders to more easily and quickly locate particular risk disclosure within the list of risks
and provides for easier comparison of risks across funds. The Trust also notes that Form N-1A does not require a particular method of
listing a fund’s principal risks. Therefore, the Trust respectfully declines to reorder the principal risks at this time.
