<\/a><\/a>\nThe two actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and SMAs are designed to provide investors, advisors, and family offices with active investment strategies focused on long-term wealth creation and seek to enhance asset allocations. The ETFs will use a Section 351 in-kind conversion strategy to transfer equities into the funds, and at launch, expect to receive a material amount of assets through tax-deferred in-kind contributions.<\/p>
\nThe ETFs bring investment strategies developed within AMG National Trust\u2019s AMG Capital Management (ACM) Division over the past two decades into the ETF market.<\/p>
\n\u201cThese strategies were built to help investors diversify portfolios and pursue long-term wealth-creation through disciplined active management. We believe the ETF structure allows us to deliver these strategies in a more tax-efficient and accessible way while maintaining the investment philosophy and process that has guided them for years,\u201d said Joshua Stevens, Chief Investment Officer of CresAlta Investment Management. \u201cMany investors today are more concentrated than they realize through passive exposures that have become increasingly weighted toward a narrow segment of the market. CresAlta offers counterweights to the passive and diversification opportunities.\u201d<\/p>
\nThe CresAlta Global Dividend ETF (CVGD) is an actively managed global equity strategy focused on long-term capital appreciation and income generation through investments in financially strong, well-managed dividend-paying stocks. The strategy combines a proprietary business cycle analysis, which informs a dynamic rotation across dividend categories to identify companies with the potential for dividend income. CVGD typically holds approximately 35\u201350 positions, with approximately 35\u201340% of the portfolio concentrated in its top 10 positions.<\/p>
\nThe CresAlta Small and Mid-Cap ETF (CVSM) is an actively managed, value-oriented SMID-cap equity strategy focused on identifying financially strong companies trading at attractive valuations with improving fundamentals. The strategy also leverages the proprietary business cycle analysis and dividend rotation framework, which typically leads to a portfolio with strong dividend growth characteristics. CVSM typically holds approximately 40-60 positions, with roughly 30% of the portfolio concentrated in its top 10 holdings.<\/p>
\n\u201cThe launch of CresAlta represents the next chapter in a long history of investment management and client service at AMG National Trust,\u201d said Earl Wright, Chairman and CEO of the bank\u2019s holding company, which wholly owns CresAlta. \u201cWe are excited for the CresAlta team to introduce these strategies in an ETF structure and continue building a platform designed to support investors with elevated investment solutions that contribute to long-run wealth creation.\u201d<\/p>
\nThis launch resonates in today\u2019s market as equity indexes have become increasingly concentrated in a narrow band of mega-cap names. CresAlta believes there is an alpha-generating opportunity for disciplined active managers. The firm currently offers six SMAs spanning global equities, SMID-cap equities, blue-chip value, sustainable investing, all-capitalization strategies, and natural resources, all informed by the same proprietary business cycle framework. CresAlta expects to continue expanding its ETF lineup, with plans to bring additional strategies to market.<\/p>
