Investment Objective
The Sterling Capital Diverse Multi-Manager Active ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation through strategies managed by sub-advisers that are majority diverse-owned (i.e., greater than 50 percent owned and/or controlled by persons of designated diverse background, including women, racial minorities, LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, and disabled individuals). The fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in U.S. large-cap and mid-cap strategies.
Investment Philosophy
Utilize a proprietary, quantitative-based asset allocation approach, which tests historical data to identify variables that have been predictive of asset class returns, to avoid emotional and cognitive biases that can lead to poor investment decisions
Employ a comprehensive investment manager due diligence process to identify strategies with characteristics that are historically associated with long-term relative performance consistency
Seek to combine complementary strategies to enhance the portfolio’s risk and return profile
