SGI Dynamic Tactical ETF | DYTA

04/03/23

Dave Harden, president and CEO, of Summit Global Investments, discusses the launch of SGI Dynamic Tactical ETF, the firm's the new semi-transparent ETF (Ticker DYTA). Opinions expressed are those of the author or Summit Global Investments and are subject to change, are not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results, nor investment advice. Recorded 11/16/2022.

SGI Dynamic Tactical ETF (DYTA) and SGI US Large Cap Core ETF (SGLC) are different from traditional ETFs. Traditional ETFs tell the public what assets they hold each day. These ETFs will not. This may create additional risks for your investment. For example:
  • You may have to pay more money to trade an ETF’s shares. These ETFs will provide less information to traders, who tend to charge more for trades when they have less information.
  • The price you pay to buy ETF shares on an exchange may not match the value of the ETF’s portfolio. The same is true when you sell shares. These price differences may be greater for these ETFs compared to other ETFs because these ETFs provide less information to traders. These additional risks may be even greater in bad or uncertain market conditions.
  • DYTA and SGLC will publish on this website each day a “Portfolio Reference Basket” or a “Proxy Portfolio,” respectively, designed to help trading in shares of the ETFs. While these include all the names of the ETFs’ holdings, they are not the ETFs’ actual portfolios.
The differences between these ETFs and other ETFs may also have advantages. By keeping certain information about an ETF portfolio secret, these ETFs may face less risk that other traders can predict or copy their investment strategies. This may improve the ETF’s performance. If other traders are able to copy or predict an ETF’s investment strategy, however, this may hurt the ETF’s performance. For additional information regarding the unique attributes and risks of these ETFs, see the Prospectus .
Important Risk Information
Carefully consider the Funds’ investment objectives, risk factors, charges, and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in SGI’s ETFs’ prospectus and in SGI’s mutual funds’ prospectus . Read the prospectuses carefully before investing.
Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment loss.
SGI ETFs and Mutual Funds are distributed by Quasar Distributors, LLC.
DYTA
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. The Fund is a newly organized, diversified management investment company with no operating history. To the extent the Fund invests in Underlying Funds that invest in fixed income securities, the Fund will be subject to fixed income securities risks. While fixed income securities normally fluctuate less in price than stocks, there have been extended periods of increases in interest rates that have caused significant declines in fixed income securities prices. To the extent that a Fund invests in Underlying Funds that invest in high-yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds”), the Fund may be subject to greater levels of interest rate and credit risk than funds that do not invest in such securities. Small-cap companies that the Underlying Funds may invest in may be more volatile than, and not as readily marketable as, those of larger companies. Small companies may also have limited product lines, markets or financial resources and may be dependent on relatively small or inexperienced management groups. Underlying Funds that invest in foreign securities may be subject to special risks, including, but not limited to, currency exchange rate volatility, political, social or economic instability, less publicly available information, less stringent investor protections and differences in taxation, auditing and other financial practices. Investments in emerging market securities by Underlying Funds are subject to higher risks than those in developed countries because there is greater uncertainty in less established markets and economies. To the extent the Fund invests in Underlying Funds that focus their investments in a particular industry or sector, the Fund's shares may be more volatile and fluctuate more than shares of a fund investing in a broader range of securities.
ESG investing risk is the risk stemming from the ESG factors that some Underlying Funds may apply in selecting securities. Some Underlying Funds may screen out particular companies that do not meet their ESG criteria. This may affect the Underlying Funds' and the Fund's exposure to certain companies or industries and cause the Underlying Funds to forego certain investment opportunities. The Underlying Funds' results may be lower than other funds that do not use ESG ratings and/or screen out certain companies or industries. Certain Underlying Funds may screen out companies that they believe may have higher downside risk and lower ESG ratings, but investors may differ in their views of ESG characteristics. As a result, the Underlying Funds may invest in companies that do not reflect the beliefs and values of any particular investor.
SGLC
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. The Fund is a newly organized, diversified management investment company with no operating history. The goal of the Proxy Portfolio is, during all market conditions, to track closely the daily performance of the Actual Portfolio and minimize intra-day misalignment between the performance of the Proxy Portfolio and the performance of the Actual Portfolio. The Proxy Portfolio is designed to reflect the economic exposures and the risk characteristics of the Actual Portfolio on any given trading day.
Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. The Fund is a newly organized, diversified management investment company with no operating history. The goal of the Proxy Portfolio is, during all market conditions, to track closely the daily performance of the Actual Portfolio and minimize intra-day misalignment between the performance of the Proxy Portfolio and the performance of the Actual Portfolio. The Proxy Portfolio is designed to reflect the economic exposures and the risk characteristics of the Actual Portfolio on any given trading day. Securities traded on over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets are not listed and traded on an organized exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Generally, the volume of trading in an unlisted or OTC common stock is less than the volume of trading in an exchange-listed stock. As a result, the market liquidity of some stocks in which the Fund invests may not be as great as that of exchange-listed stocks and, if the Fund were to dispose of such stocks, the Fund may have to offer the shares at a discount from recent prices or sell the shares in small lots over an extended period of time. In addition, penny stocks and pink sheet stocks can be classified as OTC stocks. Securities that can be converted into common stock, such as certain securities and preferred stock, are subject to the usual risks associated with fixed income investments, such as interest rate risk and credit risk.
Mutual Fund Risks
Equity securities (stocks) are subject to market, economic, and business risks that will cause their price to rise or fall over time. The net asset value per share of the Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio change and an investor may lose money. Although the Fund seeks lower volatility, there is no guarantee the Fund will perform as expected. Fund holdings and sector allocations are subject to change and are not recommendations to buy or sell any security.
Investing in other investment companies, including ETFs, may result in duplication of expenses, including advisory fees, in addition to the Fund’s own expenses and will be subject to the risks of the underlying investments.
SGI Global Equity Fund and SGI U.S. Large Cap Equity Fund - The Funds may invest in mid-cap companies, which involve additional risks such as limited liquidity and greater volatility than larger companies.
SGI Global Equity Fund - The Fund invests in foreign securities which involve political, economic and currency risks, greater volatility and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater in emerging markets.
SGI U.S. Large Cap Equity Fund - The stocks of mid-sized companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than stocks of larger companies.
SGI Small Cap Core Fund - Small-capitalization companies tend to have limited liquidity and greater price volatility than large-capitalization companies.
Top 10 Holdings
Fund holdings and sector allocations are subject to change at any time and should not be considered a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
