Investment Philosophy

Seeks to provide current income exempt from regular federal income taxes. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective when consistent with the strategy’s primary objective.

  • After-Tax Income Potential

    Municipal securities market offers the potential for higher after-tax income when compared with other fixed income markets.

  • Opportunities to Identify Undervalued Municipal Securities

    Size, depth and other characteristics of the municipal securities market offer significant opportunity set of securities that may be undervalued.

  • Market Inefficiencies

    Scale and intricacy of the municipal securities market often results in pricing anomalies and other inefficiencies on which trading strategies can capitalize.

Our Process

The Core Municipal ETF emphasizes a fundamental bottom-up research approach that drives the identification of investment opportunities in all market environments. The three phases of the process are:

  • 01

    Bottom Up Fundamental Analysis

    Team to screen for issuers that meets the investment team's fundamental tests of creditworthiness 

    Team favors those issuers with attractive return potential from a combination of price improvement and yield through solid coverage of debt service and a priority lien on hard assets, dedicated revenue streams or tax resources

    Strategic inputs include:

    • Credit analysis
    • Security structure
    • Sector analysis
    • Yield curve positioning
  • 02

    Portfolio Construction

    Team seeks to invest in a large number of sectors, states and specific issuers in order to help create a diversified portfolio and help mitigate the portfolio from events that may affect any individual industry, geographic location or credit

    Team seeks to limit exposure to individual credits, mitigate interest rate risk, and maximize overall call protection

    Portfolio assessment:

    • Position sizing
    • Performance and attribution analysis
    • Duration management
    • Leverage analysis
  • 03

    Sell Discipline

    Team may sell a security if, among other factors, it:

    • Determines a security is overvalued
    • Detects credit deterioration
    • Modifies its portfolio strategy, such as sector or state allocation

    Team may also sell a security when it exceeds the portfolio’s diversification targets

  1. Disclosures

  2. One cannot invest directly in an index. Indices do not incur management fees or other operating expenses.

  3. Definitions

  4. 30-day SEC Yield is a standard yield calculation developed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that allows for fairer comparisons of bond funds. It is based on the most recent 30-day period covered by the fund’s filings with the SEC. The yield figure reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period, after the deduction of the fund’s expenses. This is also referred to as the “standardized yield.” The number is then annualized. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund, and therefore may not be correlated with dividends and distributions paid. Had fees not been waived and or/expenses reimbursed, the SEC Yield would have been lower.

    The Subsidized 30-Day SEC Yield includes contractual expense reimbursements and it would be lower without those reimbursements.

    The Unsubsidized 30-Day SEC Yield excludes contractual expense reimbursements.

    Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) is a tax on items not normally taxed that are imposed by the federal government for individuals who exceed specific income thresholds.

    Yield to worst is a measure of the lowest possible yield that can be received on a bond that operates within the terms of its contract without defaulting.

    Average coupon is the average interest rate of a portfolios of bonds based on their relative weightings within the portfolio.

    Weighted average duration is the average duration—i.e., sensitivity to changes in interest rates—of a portfolio of bonds based on their relative weightings within the portfolio.

    Weighted average maturity is the average maturity date of a portfolio of bonds based on their relative weightings within the portfolio.

    The investment process may change over time. The information set forth above is intended as a general illustration of some of the criteria the investment team considers in selecting securities. Not all investments will meet such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss.

    These are among factors to be considered when deciding whether to sell, this is not a comprehensive list.

    A debt instrument’s “duration’’ is a way of measuring a debt instrument’s sensitivity to a potential change in interest rates.

    Diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss.

Investment Process

The Core Municipal ETF emphasizes a fundamental bottom-up research approach that drives the identification of investment opportunities in all market environments. The three phases of the process are:

  • 01

    Bottom Up Fundamental Analysis

    Team to screen for issuers that meets the investment team's fundamental tests of creditworthiness 

    Team favors those issuers with attractive return potential from a combination of price improvement and yield through solid coverage of debt service and a priority lien on hard assets, dedicated revenue streams or tax resources

    Strategic inputs include:

    • Credit analysis
    • Security structure
    • Sector analysis
    • Yield curve positioning
  • 02

    Portfolio Construction

    Team seeks to invest in a large number of sectors, states and specific issuers in order to help create a diversified portfolio and help mitigate the portfolio from events that may affect any individual industry, geographic location or credit

    Team seeks to limit exposure to individual credits, mitigate interest rate risk, and maximize overall call protection

    Portfolio assessment:

    • Position sizing
    • Performance and attribution analysis
    • Duration management
    • Leverage analysis
  • 03

    Risk Management and Sell Discipline

    Team may sell a security if, among other factors, it:

    • Determines a security is overvalued
    • Detects credit deterioration
    • Modifies its portfolio strategy, such as sector or state allocation

    Team may also sell a security when it exceeds the portfolio’s diversification targets

  2. As with all ETFs, Shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices.

    Investments involve risk. Principal loss is possible.

  4. 30-day SEC Yield is a standard yield calculation developed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that allows for fairer comparisons of bond funds. It is based on the most recent 30-day period covered by the fund’s filings with the SEC. The yield figure reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period, after the deduction of the fund’s expenses. This is also referred to as the “standardized yield.” The number is then annualized. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund, and therefore may not be correlated with dividends and distributions paid. Had fees not been waived and or/expenses reimbursed, the SEC Yield would have been lower.

    The Subsidized 30-Day SEC Yield includes contractual expense reimbursements and it would be lower without those reimbursements.

    The Unsubsidized 30-Day SEC Yield excludes contractual expense reimbursements.

    Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) is a tax on items not normally taxed that are imposed by the federal government for individuals who exceed specific income thresholds.

    Yield to worst is a measure of the lowest possible yield that can be received on a bond that operates within the terms of its contract without defaulting.

    Average coupon is the average interest rate of a portfolios of bonds based on their relative weightings within the portfolio.

    Weighted average duration is the average duration—i.e., sensitivity to changes in interest rates—of a portfolio of bonds based on their relative weightings within the portfolio.

    Weighted average maturity is the average maturity date of a portfolio of bonds based on their relative weightings within the portfolio.

    The investment process may change over time. The information set forth above is intended as a general illustration of some of the criteria the investment team considers in selecting securities. Not all investments will meet such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss.

    These are among factors to be considered when deciding whether to sell, this is not a comprehensive list.

    A debt instrument’s “duration’’ is a way of measuring a debt instrument’s sensitivity to a potential change in interest rates.

    Diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss.

    1. Risk Disclosures

      The First Eagle Core Municipal ETF is new and may not be successful under all future market conditions. The Fund may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment, trading or other efficiencies.

      All investments involve the risk of loss of principal.

      Funds that invest in bonds are subject to interest-rate risk and can lose principal value when interest rates rise, while they typically increase their principal values when interest rates decline. Bonds are also subject to credit risk, in which the bond issuer may fail to pay interest and principal in a timely manner, or that negative perception of the issuer's ability to make such payments may cause the price of that bond to decline.

      Municipal bonds are subject to credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and call risk. However, the obligations of some municipal issuers may not be enforceable through the exercise of traditional creditors' rights. The reorganization under federal bankruptcy laws of a municipal bond issuer may result in the bonds being cancelled without payment or repaid only in part, or in delays in collecting principal and interest.

      The Fund invests in high yield, fixed income securities that, at the time of purchase, are non-investment grade. High yield, lower rated securities involve greater price volatility and present greater risks than high rated fixed income securities. High yield securities are rated lower than investment-grade securities because there is a greater possibility that the issuer may be unable to make interest and principal payments on those securities. High yield securities involve greater risk than higher rated securities and portfolios that invest in them may be subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risk than portfolios that do not.
