PTIN Profile
The Pacer Trendpilot International ETF employs a proprietary methodology developed and maintained by Index Design Group, an affiliate of Pacer Advisors, Inc., the fund’s investment adviser. This ETF is designed to offer investors exposure to international equities using a systematic, trend-following approach. The fund seeks to capture the performance of a diverse array of international markets outside of the U.S. and Canada by investing primarily in the component securities of a specially designed index.
Under normal market conditions, the ETF allocates at least 80% of its total assets, excluding any collateral held from securities lending, to securities that are part of the index or have similar economic characteristics. This approach ensures that the fund closely tracks the performance of international equities while adhering to a disciplined investment strategy. The index used by the fund is crafted to reflect a broad spectrum of international markets, providing investors with diversified global exposure.
The fund’s investment strategy is built around a rules-based trend-following methodology. This strategy involves dynamically adjusting the fund’s exposure based on market trends and momentum. Specifically, the fund may shift its allocation between international equities and short-term government securities to optimize performance and manage risk. This tactical approach is intended to enhance returns during favorable market conditions while mitigating potential losses during downturns.
The Pacer Trendpilot International ETF is structured to offer investors a sophisticated tool for gaining exposure to international markets with built-in risk management features. By utilizing a trend-following strategy and maintaining a focus on securities with economic characteristics similar to those of the index components, the fund aims to provide an effective way to navigate global equity markets. This makes it an appealing option for investors seeking both international diversification and a methodical approach to market exposure.
