About this ETF
USAF is a multi-asset fund that seeks to provide exposure to its underlying securities through alternative strategies known as systematic trading. It aims for stable returns through investments in equity and investment grade fixed income securities, structured securities, REITs, and ADRs, while having low or negative correlations to the equity market. It may invest directly in securities or indirectly through ETFs or derivatives. In selecting it constituents, it employs a multi-step process which involves identifying and filtering the eligible securities, utilizing systematic trading strategies, determining the economic growth and inflation state, and allocating target weights to each selected component. Additionally, the fund primarily invests in securities that are economically tied to the US, and of any market capitalization. USAF may gain exposure to certain investments through a subsidiary owned by the fund and organized in the Cayman Islands.
