About this ETF
ALIL is constructed by narrowing down a pool of US small-cap stocks using a bottom-up, fundamental approach that combines qualitative and quantitative criteria. The process looks to companies with a competitive advantage, have positive and improving cashflow, and a strong management team with a proven track record for value creation. The fund selects companies considered to have superior earnings growth and whose shares are trading at attractive valuation. Roughly 35-45 holdings are expected to be held in the portfolio. As a result, the fund is expected to have a low-turnover ratio. Prior to the ETF's launch, the strategy was implemented through a separately managed account (SMA).
