Products and Services

• Actively Managed ETF

  This product is designed to provide investors with a dynamic investment vehicle that actively adjusts its portfolio to respond to market conditions. By focusing on total return, the ETF seeks to balance income generation and capital growth, making it appealing for investors seeking both stability and growth potential.

• Investment in U.S. Debt Instruments

  The fund invests a significant portion of its assets in U.S. debt instruments, which may include government bonds, corporate bonds, and municipal debt. This exposure helps to ensure a solid base of reliable income while taking advantage of the relative stability of the U.S. economy.

• Investment in Non-U.S. Debt Instruments

  In addition to U.S. securities, the ETF also allocates a portion of its portfolio to non-U.S. debt instruments. This international diversification can help enhance returns and spread risk across different economic environments and currency movements, potentially leading to greater capital appreciation over time.

• Benchmarking Against the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index

  The fund's performance is compared to the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which aggregates various bonds including investment-grade U.S. government and corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and other publicly traded debt. This benchmark provides a transparent measure for evaluating the fund’s effectiveness in meeting its investment goals.
