Investment Objective

The Sterling Capital Multi-Strategy Income ETF is an actively-managed ETF that seeks to provide a competitive total return and current income. To achieve its investment objective, the Fund seeks to provide total return, whether through price appreciation, or income, or a combination of both. Utilizing a flexible, unconstrained investment approach, the Fund evaluates various asset classes and may consider opportunities across both U.S. and non-U.S. markets.

Philosophy

The portfolio management team utilizes a multi-faceted, opportunistic investment approach that seeks to add value and manage risk in client portfolios. This process incorporates both a macro view that drives top-down decisions as well as fundamental bottom-up research that drives sector and security selection. 

The top-down process is based on the team's macro-economic view of factors such as growth, inflation, interest rate, sectors, and country fundamentals. This top-down view is coupled with a bottom-up process which identifies drivers of investment returns, strong underlying fundamentals and guides the relative value decisions within sectors. Key factors in security selection include business model, financials, capital structure, and relative value across instruments. 

On a forward-looking basis, the team believes the drivers of portfolio return will vary from year to year, investment cycle to investment cycle, and as such it is critical to be flexible and build an investment infrastructure that is prepared to take advantage of all opportunities no matter the source.

Sub-Advisers to the Fund

The Fund utilizes a sub-adviser, Guardian Capital LP (the “Sub-Adviser”), to help manage the Fund’s derivatives investments (the “Derivatives Sleeve”). The Sub-Adviser, which is overseen by the Fund’s adviser, Sterling Capital Management LLC (the “Adviser”), provides investment recommendations to the Adviser regarding the selection and allocation of derivatives investments for the Fund, and the Adviser, with the recommendations of the Sub-Adviser, determines final weightings of derivatives within the Fund through its asset allocation process. The Fund may seek to hedge currency and credit risk or gain exposure to bonds and other debt obligations and various market sectors using derivatives. Within the Derivative Sleeve, the Sub-Adviser may utilize a broad range of derivative instruments such as (i) futures, including Treasury futures and options on Treasury futures and index futures, (ii) forwards, including currency forwards, (iii) swaps, including single name and index credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, currency swaps, and total return swaps, and (iv) options, including options on futures, currencies, and indices. Currency derivatives may be used to hedge non-dollar denominated securities or to express active currency views. The Fund may utilize other derivatives to achieve the Fund’s investment objective, subject to review and approval by the Adviser.

Days at premium 14 - - 14 17
Days at discount - - - - -

The Premium/Discount shows the difference between the daily market price of the Fund’s shares and the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). Beginning November 2, 2020, market price data will be reflecting the official closing price. Prior to November 2, 2020, market price data is shown as the midpoint price. The midpoint is the average of the bid-ask prices at 4:00 PM ET (when NAV is normally determined for most funds). The table shows the premium or discount of the Mid-Point price as a percentage of the NAV as well as the number of trading days the Fund traded within the given premium/discount range. This data is provided for information purposes only and is not intended for trading purposes. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
