AZTD Profile
The Aztlan Global Stock Selection DM SMID ETF is designed to offer investors targeted exposure to small- and mid-capitalization (SMID-cap) equities within developed markets. The fund tracks an index that includes equity securities from three primary developed market regions: North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. This diversified approach aims to provide investors with a broad yet focused investment in smaller and mid-sized companies that are incorporated in or listed on exchanges within these developed economies.
Under normal market conditions, the Aztlan Global Stock Selection DM SMID ETF allocates at least 80% of its net assets, including any borrowings for investment purposes, to equity securities of SMID-cap companies. This strategy emphasizes a focus on smaller companies with growth potential while seeking to capture the performance of a segment that is often underrepresented in broader market indices. The funds concentration on SMID-cap stocks allows investors to access opportunities for higher growth and potential returns relative to large-cap equities.
The index underlying the ETF is meticulously constructed to include a diverse range of SMID-cap companies across various sectors and industries. This diversified approach helps to spread risk and capitalize on growth opportunities in different market segments. The funds investment process involves selecting companies based on a blend of quantitative metrics and qualitative assessments to identify those with strong potential for performance within the developed markets.
Aztlan Global employs a strategic investment approach to manage the ETF, focusing on delivering returns that reflect the performance of SMID-cap equities in developed markets. By concentrating on smaller companies within established economies, the fund aims to offer investors a way to participate in the growth potential of this market segment while maintaining exposure to a globally diversified portfolio. This approach is designed to cater to investors seeking a balance of growth opportunities and geographical diversification within developed markets.
