\nColumbia Threadneedle Investments today announced the launch of six new exchange-traded funds (ETFs), further expanding its differentiated range of actively managed and Research Enhanced strategies designed with the goal of outperforming traditional benchmarks. The additions to the firm\u2019s lineup provide investors with targeted exposure to key segments of the equity and fixed income markets through transparent, efficient vehicles.\n<\/p>\n
\nBuilding off the success of the Columbia Research Enhanced Core ETF (NYSE Arca: RECS), these three new equity ETFs round out the firm\u2019s recognized Research Enhanced suite, which is designed to improve traditional benchmark exposures by removing securities where research indicates low conviction. This practical framework seeks to address a common challenge that financial advisors face: the inability to remove underperforming stocks from traditional index investments to improve client asset allocation and portfolio outcomes. These new strategies are:\n<\/p>\n
- \n
- Columbia Research Enhanced Small Cap ETF (NYSE Arca: RESM):<\/b> An actively managed ETF that aims to uncover high-quality small-cap opportunities with strong return potential.\n<\/li>\n
- Columbia Research Enhanced Mid Cap ETF (NYSE Arca: REMC)<\/b>: An actively managed ETF that applies a similar strategy to RESM but targets mid-cap companies positioned for sustainable growth.\n<\/li>\n
- Columbia Research Enhanced International Equity ETF (NYSE Arca: REFA):<\/b> A rules-based ETF that tracks an indexed strategy focused on exposure to non-U.S. developed market equities.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nThe new fixed income ETFs deliver actively managed strategies aimed at total return through income and capital appreciation, each benchmarked to a leading index and managed by experienced teams with deep credit and structured credit expertise. They include:\n<\/p>\n
- \n
- Columbia Corporate Bond ETF (NYSE Arca: CCRP)<\/b>: An actively managed ETF that focuses on investment-grade corporate bonds.\n<\/li>\n
- Columbia Core Plus Bond ETF (NYSE Arca: CRXP):<\/b> An actively managed diversified fixed income ETF that invests across the U.S. aggregate bond market with added flexibility for opportunistic positioning.\n<\/li>\n
- Columbia AAA CLO ETF (NYSE Arca: AAAC):<\/b> An actively managed ETF that provides exposure to primarily high-quality, AAA-rated collateralized loan obligations (or equivalently rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO)).\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n\u201cAt Columbia Threadneedle, our investment edge is grounded in the strength of our research and portfolio management teams, and the powerful quantitative and fundamental insights they generate through close collaboration,\u201d said Marc Zeitoun, Head of North America Product and Business Intelligence. \u201cThese six new ETFs reflect our commitment to providing investors with that differentiated expertise through transparent, efficient solutions that are thoughtfully and intentionally designed with the goal of outperforming traditional benchmarks.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\nEach ETF is listed on NYSE Arca and available for purchase through financial intermediaries. With these additions, Columbia Threadneedle now offers a robust suite<\/a> of 20 U.S.-based ETFs spanning equities, equity income, thematic growth, and fixed income strategies, half of which are actively managed. The firm also recently launched its QR (Quant Redefined) ETF Series in Europe, debuting two actively managed equity ETFs, with two more in the series set to launch in the coming months.\n<\/p>\n
\nThe firm\u2019s growing ETF lineup reflects a commitment to innovation and the pursuit of alpha, whether through fundamentally driven active strategies or approaches that integrate proprietary research with smart indexing to navigate evolving market conditions. These ETFs offer streamlined access to key asset classes, giving investors the flexibility and precision to build cost-efficient portfolios.\n<\/p>\n
