Frontier AM new ETFs

Frontier Asset Management has introduced six new actively managed "fund-of-funds" ETFs on the NYSE, offering investors access to a carefully curated mix of asset classes and strategies.

These ETFs include the Frontier Asset U.S. Large Cap Equity ETF (FLCE), Global Small Cap Equity ETF (FGSM), Total International Equity ETF (FINT), Core Bond ETF (FCBD), Opportunistic Credit ETF (FOPC), and Absolute Return ETF (FARX).

Here’s a closer look at what each fund has to offer:

The Frontier Asset U.S. Large Cap Equity ETF focuses on long-term total return by investing in ETFs holding equity securities of large-cap U.S. companies.

The Global Small Cap Equity ETF extends this approach globally, targeting small-cap companies in developed markets to pursue long-term growth.

The Total International Equity ETF invests in ETFs holding mid- and large-cap equities in non-U.S. markets, including emerging markets, to capture international opportunities.

On the fixed income side, the Core Bond ETF seeks high income with capital preservation, investing in ETFs with exposure to U.S. investment-grade securities like government bonds, corporate debt, and mortgage-backed securities.

The Opportunistic Credit ETF broadens this scope, including both investment-grade and high-yield securities globally, such as corporate debt and bank loans.

Finally, the Absolute Return ETF takes a diversified and flexible approach, targeting total return through exposure to equities, fixed income, commodities, and currencies across domestic and foreign markets, without fixed asset allocation targets.

Together, these funds offer a broad range of investment solutions for different risk and return profiles.
