Why Invest?

Exposure to Innovation: Aims for thematic multi-cap exposure to innovative technologies, including orbital and sub-orbital aerospace, enabling technologies, and beneficiaries of aerospace activities, such as agriculture, internet access, global positioning system (GPS), construction, and imaging.

Growth Potential: Aims to capture long-term growth with low correlation of relative returns to traditional growth strategies and negative correlation to value strategies.

Tool for Diversification: Active stock selection results in little overlap with traditional indices. It can be a complement to traditional value/growth strategies.

Grounded in Research: Combines top-down and bottom-up research in its portfolio management to identify innovative companies and convergence across markets.

Cost-Effective: Provides a lower-cost alternative to mutual funds with true active management in an ETF that invests in rapidly moving themes.
