Overview

Investment Strategy:

The KraneShares Man Buyout Beta Index ETF (Ticker: BUYO) seeks to track the performance of the Man Buyout Beta Index, which is designed to apply the key return drivers of PE/buyout funds to public equities. The fund employs a systematic approach to select a portfolio of small to mid-cap stocks from the Russell 2500 Index, targeting industries favored by PE firms and companies that are similar in size and display similar company-specific characteristics as those in traditional PE funds.

KraneShares Man Buyout Beta Index ETF Features:

  • Seeks to identify methodologies that buyout funds use to target takeover candidates and systematically apply them to public equities to achieve similar results, such as delivering potentially higher long-term returns and diversification1.
  • Targets small to mid-cap public companies included in the Russell 2500 Index that exhibit the following characteristics:
    • Belong to sectors favored by PE funds, including Information Technology, Consumer Discretionary, Industrials, and Health Care.
    • Filters for companies with characteristics favored by PE funds, including strong free cash flow yield, higher operating margins, cash discipline (lower CapEx, ability to repay debt), and top-line growth among dozens of other signals.
  • Utilizes Man Group’s data-driven, liquid PE investment approach, which has been used since 2018, to construct a portfolio that is designed to be highly correlated and have a return profile similar to that of traditional buyout funds longer term.
  • Intraday liquidity, lower management fee relative to traditional PE funds, and full daily holdings transparency.
