Investment Objective/Strategy - The Small Cap US Equity Select ETF (the "Fund") seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Fund's fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Nasdaq Riskalyze US Small Cap Index (the "Index"). The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (including investment borrowings) in common stocks that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index. The Fund's investment advisor seeks a correlation of 0.95 or better (before fees and expenses) between the Fund's performance and the performance of the Index; a figure of 1.00 would represent perfect correlation. The Index is owned and is developed, maintained and sponsored by Riskalyze, Inc. (the "Index Provider").
There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment objectives will be achieved.
- The Nasdaq Riskalyze US Small Cap Index is a modified market capitalization weighted index which seeks to provide a diversified portfolio of dividend-paying US small cap securities.
- To be eligible for inclusion in the index, a security must meet certain criteria, including:
- being a member of the Nasdaq US 700 Small Cap Index,
- having paid a dividend in the trailing twelve months.
- Sector weights are assigned that are equal to the sector weights within the Nasdaq US 700 Small Cap Index.
- Securities within each sector are equally weighted.
- The index is rebalanced and reconstituted on a quarterly basis.
