The performance data quoted here represents past performance. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted above. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. For performance information current to the most recent month-end, please call toll-free 888-637-7798. Total annual fund operating expenses are 0.39%. Please review the fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the fund’s fees and expenses. Beginning November 2, 2020, market price returns are calculated using the closing price and account for distributions from the funds. Prior to November 2, 2020, market price returns were calculated using the midpoint price and accounted for distributions from the fund. The midpoint is the average of the bid-ask prices at 4:00 PM ET (when NAV is normally determined for most funds). 

30-Day Median Bid-Ask Spread is defined as the average difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay and the lowest price the seller is willing to accept, over the past 30 days.

Investment Objective

The Sterling Capital Enhanced Core Bond ETF seeks a high level of current income and a competitive total return. It seeks to provide total return through a combination of income and capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities. The ETF implements an "enhanced core" strategy by allocating assets between investment-grade bonds and high-yield, high-risk bonds to achieve its performance objectives.

Philosophy

In managing the portfolio, the portfolio management team uses a “top-down” investment management approach focusing on interest rate risk, allocation among sectors, credit risk, and individual securities selection. The team focuses on macro trends in the economy to establish a duration target that reflects the outlook for the future direction of interest rates. For yield curve management, in addition to the trend in interest rates, other factors such as future inflation expectations, supply factors and future interest rate expectations are considered. Sector weightings are driven by a combination of the team’s macro view on interest rates and volatility as well as relative spread analysis (a comparison of current and historical valuation relationships between various sectors). Utilizing fundamental analysis, the team then selects individual securities consistent with the target by looking for the best relative values within particular sectors. The analysis includes an attempt to understand the structure and embedded features of potential securities.
