1 ETF Managed s Landscape Report Morningstar Research January 2012 Andrew Gogerty, ETF Managed s Strategist
2 2 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 Executive Summary 3 ETF managed portfolios are investment strategies that typically have more than 50 of portfolio assets invested in ETFs. Primarily available as separate accounts they represent one of the fastest-growing segments of the managed account universe. 3 Morningstar is currently tracking nearly 370 strategies from 95 firms with collective assets under advisement of $27 billion as of September Morningstar estimates that the total ETF managed portfolio space is likely between $40 billion and $100 billion when considering discretionary and non-discretionary assets and model portfolios. 3 Assets have grown 43 over the last 12 months. 3 Nearly two-thirds of the strategies started after of the strategies are less than three years old. 3 Continued acceptance of the fiduciary standard is leading many advisors to outsource the money-management function to ETF managed portfolio firms. 3 Morningstar has developed a proprietary, portfolio attribute classification system for ETF managed portfolios. The new structure consists of four main attributes: Universe, Asset Breadth,, and. 3 Global strategies, collectively, hold 72 of assets in this space. 3 Firms such as Good Harbor Financial, Quantitative Advantage, and Cougar Global Investments have seen large changes in asset growth and moved up the list towards industry leaders Windhaven Investment Management, RiverFront Investment Group, and Innealta Capital. 3 Performance of these strategies has been competitive with applicable open-end mutual fund and separate account category returns, with both high and low points. 3 Morningstar will begin systematically collecting Assets Under Advisement (AUA) for separate account strategies in 2012 to better capture assets following a given strategy. 3 We expect a growth in disclosure of both third-party and proprietary strategies to database providers such as Morningstar. As recognition of ETF managed portfolio strategies continues, we expect the depth-of and demandfor information to increase for proprietary and rep-asportfolio-manager composite strategies. 3 Education on both these strategies and ETFs in general remains a near-term hurdle to deeper penetration into the advisor community. Success in gathering assets going forward, we believe, will be based on the ability of a firm to educate potential decision-makers both on the benefits of its strategy and also be able to clearly, and simply articulate the benefits within the context of the client s investment policy guidelines. 3 Global All-Asset strategies hold $10 billion and have captured more than 50 of the asset growth.

4 4 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 ETF Managed s represent one of the fastest-growing segments of the managed account universe. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) continue to command more incremental investment dollars from advisors and investors. For the one-year ended Dec. 31, 2011, Morningstar estimates that net inflows to ETFs were $121 billion compared with $56 billion for open-end mutual funds, despite the one-to-seven size differential in their respective assets of $1.1 trillion and $7.8 trillion. While the growth of ETF assets is not a new story, the emerging story of ETF managed portfolios has been little discussed. Primarily structured as separate accounts, these strategies typically have more than 50 of portfolio assets invested in ETFs and represent one of the fastestgrowing segments of the managed-account universe. Morningstar is currently tracking nearly 370 strategies from 95 firms with collective assets under advisement or AUA of $27 billion as of September 2011 a 43 growth over the last 12 months. Morningstar estimates that the total ETF managed portfolio space is likely between $40 billion and $100 billion when considering discretionary and non-discretionary assets and model portfolios. Strategy launches have increased dramatically in recent years nearly two thirds of the strategies started in 2005 or later and 30 of the strategies are less than three years old. A Change in Money Management There are several reasons for the growth of ETF managed portfolios. Morningstar and academic research have shown that asset allocation is as important as security selection in determining portfolio total returns. A prudently constructed portfolio of ETFs provides wide assetallocation options and low-cost diversification. ETFs provide transparency, intraday liquidity, and portfolio consistency to strategists allocating among various asset classes and subclasses. We re seeing steadily increasing flows and interest from advisors towards third-party ETF managed strategies. The space has passed the tipping point with the independent advisor market and broader wealth management space. Randy Bullard, Placemark Investments Strategist firms are also benefitting from a shift in the way financial advisors and registered investment advisors, or RIAs, manage money. Whether mandated by law or continued market pressures, the fiduciary standard will continue to grow as the standard for managing a client s portfolio and the shift to a fee-based compensation structure will likely continue. For many advisors, this has led to the outsourcing of the money-management function to ETF managed portfolio firms. Advisors continue to focus on gathering and retaining client assets and managing a client s overall financial profile while ceding more of the actual portfolio management duties to strategist firms. Advisors are shouldering new responsibilities such as compliance and technology in addition to managing and attracting new clients. Many are choosing to outsource the money management function and concentrate on growing the firm and managing client relationships. Break-away advisors requiring a turn-key money management solution similar to what they received as part of a larger wire-house or broker-dealer are also turning to third-party ETF managed portfolio solutions. Mitch Reiner, Managing Partner, Wela Strategies With ETFs trading on exchanges, advisors and RIAs can access these separate account strategies while maintaining daily pricing of client portfolios. Moreover, compensation is pulled out of the investments and done at the account level rather than being buried in the myriad share classes of mutual funds and their distribution and selling
5 5 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 Assets by Inception Year Assets USD Mil To aid investors, Morningstar has developed a portfolio attribute classification system for ETF managed portfolios. Unlike the well-known Morningstar Category TM classificaagreements. As a result, advisors can focus on wealth management for their clients and still offer institutionaltype diversification in their portfolios. There continues to be increased interest in management of a portfolio of ETFs because it offers a full portfolio solution rather than just an individual asset component. Whether a strategy has a dynamic or tactical component to navigate market volatility, managers of ETFs offer unique and innovative answers to complex portfolio needs. Skip Motsenbocker, Managing Partner, SignalPoint Asset Management, LLC Firm Evolution The growing use of ETF managed portfolios has led to changes in how strategist firms are organized and perceived by advisors and decision-makers. Many of these firms were initially started by financial advisors who broke away from wire-house operations or other regional broker-dealers. As is the case with many start-up ventures, these entrepreneurs were likely lured by the possibility of greater autonomy, a wider potential client base, and the ability to build a distinct brand. While initially directly serving their own clients, many of these firms began seeing a growing interest in their investment and asset-allocation strategies from other finan- cial advisors and investment consultants. As a result, firms evolved and continue evolving from a client advisory practice toward the small, boutique money manager model commonly seen in the traditional separate account space. ETF managed portfolio firms today also include traditional separate account managers, such as Cookson Peirce and Gratry & Company, that have leveraged their research into ETF-only strategies. Top-down research is an integral part of our process. Therefore as the ETF universe (particularly country index ETFs) began to evolve, an ETF-only portfolio was a logical extension of our existing active portfolios, and offers a broader market capitalization exposure and a neutral approach to style. Gregory Tropf, CFA, Director of Research, Gratry & Company LLC A New Industry Standard The global growth in both depth and breadth of ETFs gives investment managers access to almost any asset class and region of the world. The ETF structure combined with its intraday trading ability also gives managers the ability to quickly and cost effectively change, sometimes in dramatic fashion, the profile of a portfolio. For example, swapping from U.S. large-cap stock exposure to dividendpaying, emerging-markets small-cap equities can be accomplished by trading as little as one position in SPDR S&P 500 SPY for another in WisdomTree Emerging Markets SmallCap Dividend DGS, as opposed to the potentially hundreds of individual stock trades it would take to replicate those exposures in a traditional portfolio. 8,000 6,000 4,000 2, Strategies Launched by Year Number of Strategies This tactical ability to quickly change a portfolio profile can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, the investment managers can nimbly and cheaply reposition a strategy to adjust to an ever more rapidly changing investment landscape. On the other hand, it forces decision makers to look past standard holdings-based analysis in order to choose the most suitable strategies for client portfolios and properly frame potential return expectations. Periodic (typically quarterly) portfolio disclosures may be of little use to decision makers, if the portfolio has since been significantly changed. Muddying the waters even more, strategy providers also have littered the landscape with a myriad of blended benchmarks that makes understanding, let alone comparing, strategies across the space difficult. The evolution of tactically managing a portfolio of ETFs has created a need for additional, standard information on these strategies.
6 6 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 tions, the new attribute classifications rely on both our analysis of the investment strategy as well as a historical review of disclosed holdings. Some strategies are still siloed among equities or fixed income, allowing decisionmakers to fill-the-box ; others are built around a total portfolio solution concept, emphasizing risk or global diversification with a blending of alternatives. Our new structure consists of four main attributes: Universe, Asset Breadth,, and Primary ETF. With better insight into a strategy s attributes, investors can better understand its broad philosophy. These four attributes are then further broken down into a list of unique classifications. Each strategy is assigned one classification within each attribute. Attribute and Classification Summary assigned to strategies with at least an 80/20 split among U.S. and International exposure. We also took into account, where necessary, the regional exposure of the dominant asset driver designated in the Asset Breadth attribute. Asset Breadth The classifications within this attribute indicate a strategy s primary asset class exposure or returns driver. There are five options here: All-Asset, Alternative, Balanced, Equity, and Fixed Income. These selections don t indicate that the whole portfolio is, for example, invested in equities or bonds, but rather sets the expectation for advisors and investors regarding the primary driver of returns. Classification within this attribute includes an analysis of historical portfolio asset allocations and a review, if available, of a strategy s investment policy benchmark, or starting portfolio, or naïve portfolio. Universe Asset Breadth Global All-Asset Hybrid Broad Market International Alternative Strategic Sector United States Balanced Tactical Country/Region Equity Fixed Income All-Inclusive Universe The first attribute describes the starting scope of a strategy s investment process on a global basis. The distinction is based upon the exposure of the underlying securities within the ETF used, not the domicile of the ETF itself. The classifications for this attribute are United States, International, and Global. 3 United States: U.S. portfolios primarily use ETFs providing exposure to U.S. equity and fixed-income securities. 3 International: International portfolios primarily use ETFs providing exposure to non-u.s. equity and fixedincome securities. 3 Global: These strategies have the opportunity to add exposure to any market across the globe and have historically employed such flexibility. The initial selection of this attribute is based on many factors, included a review of the strategy s current Morningstar Separate Account Category and Institutional Category, as well as an analysis of available portfolios. Where available, we ve also reviewed a firm s deck or description of the investment strategy to note any starting universe or list of available ETFs or asset classes for investment. In benchmark or starting portfolios, the Global attribute was 3 All-Asset: These strategies typically have the widest and most-flexible mandate when investing in ETFs across asset classes. In reviewing the portfolios, we designated this attribute to strategies that consistently held more than 10 in Other assets as well as in underlying equity and fixed-income securities. 3 Alternative: Alternative strategies typically seek returns uncorrelated to traditional equity and fixed-income markets by attempting to remove one or more asset betas or return drivers. Strategies with this attribute designation include long/short or other alternative strategies, including currencies. 3 Balanced: The balanced option indicates strategies in which the return driver is a combination of equity and fixed-income exposure on a dedicated, ongoing basis. These strategies typically have a 30 to 70 allocation to equities. 3 Equity: The primary asset driver of these strategies is long or beta-type exposure to equity securities. The use of leverage by the underlying ETF is ignored. These strategies typically have at least a 70 allocation to equities. 3 Fixed Income: The primary asset driver of these strategies is long or beta-type exposure to fixed-income securities. The use of leverage by the underlying ETF is ignored. These strategies typically have less than a 30 allocation to equities. This attribute gives insight into the investment manager s process for implementing a portfolio s investment strategy. Selection decisions for this attribute are based upon a
7 7 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 Current Assets by Attribute, 9/30/2011 review of the degree of changes both within and among asset classes in a portfolio. As a result, changes to the cash/equity/fixed income/other allocation, as well as to a portfolio s U.S. /non-u.s. exposure, are considered. The three classifications are Hybrid, Strategic, and Tactical. 3 Hybrid: This option indicates portfolios that utilize a combination of tactical and strategic elements in asset allocation. Hybrid portfolios, for example, start with a stated investment policy benchmark or asset allocation but allow for significant deviations of exposure within and between allocations, similar to core and satellite or hub and spoke operating models. strategies that make significant use of options also receive this classification. 3 Strategic: These are strategies that establish and maintain a long-term allocation plan across either asset classes, sectors, or a combination thereof. These portfolios may deviate from the plan in short-term periods based on identified opportunities but typically to a smaller degree compared with tactical strategies. Strategies for which few historic portfolios have been provided to our database initially default to this classification. 3 Tactical: Tactical strategies engage in short-term and potentially large changes in the asset mix of a portfolio to All-Asset Alternative Balanced Equity Fixed Income Total Global International United States Total Strategies by Attribute, 9/30/2011 All-Asset Alternative Balanced Equity Fixed Income Total Global International United States Total ETF Managed Asset Growth by Attribute, 9/30/2011 All-Asset Alternative Balanced Equity Fixed Income Total Global International United States Total Source: Morningstar, Inc. capitalize on identified investment opportunities. These changes are typically intended to be reversed or removed. The last attribute identifies the type of ETF typically used to gain exposure to the Universe and Asset Breadth attributes. Selection is based upon analysis of past portfolios and information regarding a strategy s starting universe or list of potential investments. 3 Broad Market: Broad-based ETFs tracking diversified indexes such as the Russell 2000 Index, S&P 500, or Barclays Aggregate Bond. 3 Sector: Strategies that primarily use individual equity sector ETFs, such as those focusing on financials, or more narrowly focused fixed-income ETFs to gain exposure within the Asset Breadth attribute. A sector fixed-income strategy is typically one focused on a single sector such as municipals or Treasury ETFs. 3 Country/Region: Similar to the sector option, these strategies utilize single-country, regional, or currency ETFs focused on a geographical region and are typically found in the international or global Universe attribute. 3 All-Inclusive: All ETFs meeting the Universe and Asset Breadth criteria for a strategy are potential investments. We believe our attribute classification system gives decision-makers a significant new tool for conducting research on these strategies and provides better expectations for potential exposures across the ETF universe. For instance, a tactical strategy with a global, balanced mandate that happens to have a large exposure to United States equities at one specific point in time has a greater potential for change going forward compared with a strategy with a U.S. equity mandate. A Global Appetite Our attribute classification system also provides a framework within which it is now possible to discuss developments in the ETF managed portfolios universe. Global strategies dominate the space, holding over $19 billion 72 of assets reported to Morningstar. Inside the Global universe, All-Asset strategies are the hot dot, with $10 billion in current assets. All-Asset strategies also posted the largest asset growth, with nearly $4.6 billion of the total $8.1 billion (57) in inflows to the ETF managed portfolio space over the one-year ended Sept. 30, 2011 going here. Global strategies combined grew by $7.3 billion over the year representing 90 of the entire
8 8 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 growth. As we mentioned earlier, the ability and ease to construct multi-asset portfolios with ETFs enables portfolio strategists to provide a complete solution to advisors and other asset allocators within one strategy. In addition to traditional equity and fixed-income allocations, many strategies in this space allocate assets to gold, sliver, and broad-based commodity indexes. Assets in the Global All-Asset space are currently highly concentrated. Three strategies from Boston-based Windhaven Investment Management, recently acquired by Charles Schwab, hold a combined $7 billion, making both the firm and its strategies the largest in the entire ETF managed portfolio space. Quantitative Advantage s Tactical All-Market strategy and Cougar Global Investment s MAR 8 strategy have also seen significant growth, increasing $423 million and $314 million, respectively. The Building Block of Equity The total-portfolio solution concept of All-Asset strategies may be here to stay, but that hasn t diminished the appeal of equity-focused strategies among advisors and consultants. In total, this group accounts for 35 of total ETF managed portfolio assets, just slightly behind All-Asset s 39 share. Assets within equity strategies are more evenly distributed compared with All-Asset, with Global, International, and United States strategies holding $4.8, $1.5, and $3.1 billion, respectively. Largest Managed ETF Firms, 9/30/2011 Firm Largest One-Year Growth in Assets, 9/30/2011 Firm Growth USD Mil * Assets USD Mil Windhaven Investment Management 2,909 7,081 Stadion Money Management, LLC 1,000 1,219 Cougar Global Investments LP Astor Asset Management LLC 533 1,159 Quantitative Advantage RiverFront Investment Group, LLC 446 2,549 Sage Advisory Services Ltd Co Good Harbor Financial, LLC * Assets of ETF-managed portfolio strategies reported to Morningstar * Assets USD Mil Windhaven Investment Management 7,081 RiverFront Investment Group, LLC 2,549 Innealta Capital 1,499 Stadion Money Management, LLC 1,219 Astor Asset Management LLC 1,159 Quantitative Advantage 895 * Assets of ETF-managed portfolio strategies reported to Morningstar While equity strategies accounted for nearly 30 of total growth in the ETF managed portfolio space, the Global strategies again dominated the increase, accounting for $1.6 billion of the $2.4 total growth, compared with just $48 million for International offerings and $740 million for the U.S. offerings. Stadion Money Management s Managed Strategy has been the primary driver of the Global Equity space, growing to $1.1 billion in assets from $211 million. Windham Global Equities, a relatively new strategy launched in August 2010, added more than $200 million over the past year, while Sage Tactical ETF Growth assets stand at $150 million, up from just $9 million the year before. Both Sage and Stadion employ a Tactical approach in managing the portfolios, and that flexibility was put to good use in 2008 as the two strategies posted significantly smaller losses (29 and 5, respectively) compared with the Morningstar Global Equity Index s 42 decline. Among United States Equity strategies, the Chicagobased Good Harbor US Tactical Core strategy commanded more than half the total U.S. equity growth with a $400 million rise in assets. The strategy s small absolute gain of 1.1 in 2008 combined with a 19 three-year annualized return through 2010 caught the attention of many advisors and platforms last year. Other material growth in the space was driven by sectorrotation strategies from Innealta Capital. Its offerings, as well as a handful from competitors, look to outpace the S&P 500 Index by rotating assets among major sectors of the U.S. equity market. Innealta s strategies don t have the lengthy track record seen at Good Harbor but did post gains of 3 and 5 the one-year ended Sept. 30, 2011, compared with the index s 1.1 gain. We expect Equity strategies to maintain a material share of the overall ETF managed portfolio space, as many advisors and asset-allocators still look to equities as a primary building block for client portfolios. Alternatives and Bonds Alternative strategies remain a favorite among new launches, with six of the 13 available strategies only launched within the past two years. The space is dominated by the Astor Long/Short Balanced strategy, which at $1.1 billion accounts for nearly all the assets among Alternative strategies. Astor s growth may be an anomaly (up from just $622 million the year before) or a sign of an increased appetite for alternatives among advisors. It should be noted that Astor s growth has come primarily from separate accounts, not its mutual fund vehicle, amid
9 9 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 New Strategy Launches, 2010 and 2011 continued industry demand for liquid alternative strategies. These strategies cover a wide-array of styles and investments, including long-short, market-neutral, currencies, commodities, and precious-metals. Fixed Income was the lone Asset-Breadth attribute to post a decline in assets for the year, falling to $1.4 billion from $1.9 billion. Nearly all the decline can be attributed to an exodus from Innealta s Fixed Income strategy, which fell nearly $760 million in assets from $874 to $106 million. Performance Analysis and Take-Aways Longer-term performance of these strategies has been competitive with broader, applicable open-end mutual fund and separate account category returns, with both high and low points. Three- and five-year net annualized returns (see accompanying tables on pages 20 and 48) for Global All- Asset, International Equity, and U.S. Equity often outpaced comparable peers, and in some cases the smaller subset of Tactical strategies within these groups fared even better. That s not to be confused with ALL Tactical managers. In looking at the performance in 2008 and also the downside capture ratios starting on page 42, there has been a wide variance in performance and the ability to avoid losses. But overall, based on the median returns thus far, some strategists have successfully used their tactical ability both to go to defensive assets in times of market volatility and to rotate to stronger-performing sectors in times of market rallies. Within the Tactical Global All-Asset space, for example, Cougar Global Investment s MAR 6 and MAR 8 strategies posted returns of 1.7 and negative 1.7, respectively, during 2008 s global free-fall, while strategies from Confluence and Kingfisher fell more than 30. This dispersion, along with upside capture of global returns, has led to a wide variance of three-year annualized returns from 9.9 for Boyd Watterson Titanium Global Macro SMA to negative 10.4 for Confluence Global Macro. Windhaven s three strategies have more of a strategic portfolio implementation and, compared with peers, rank among the best on three- and five-year bases. All-Asset Alternative Balanced Equity Fixed Income Total Global International United States Total Source: Morningstar, Inc. In the end, though, these strategies remain far from homogenous, requiring additional research to understand how asset-allocation changes are made and how performance can be attributed. U.S. Equity sector-rotation strategies have had inconsistent success overall against the S&P 500 Index. These strategies commonly look to allocate assets across one or more primary equity sectors (financials, industrials, and so on) and often have the ability to go to cash when individual sectors don t appear attractive. There is approximately $1 billion in these separate account strategies, though just a handful of them have five-year records. Strategies including isectors Post-MPT Growth Allocation-SMA, BCM AlphaSector Premium IDX, Braver Tactical Equity Sector Rotation, and Innealta s two Tac ETF Sector Rotation offerings have done well in the short-term, while Green Investment Management s Guardian Sector has fallen woefully behind the index across one-, three-, and five-year periods. The education around tactical allocation remains a focal point for strategists. They view individual ETFs both from a stock basis, focusing on relative valuation, momentum, and trading ranges as well as a fund of securities providing consistent market and geographic exposure. But unlike long-only managers trying to move in and out of hundreds of individual securities to materially change a portfolio s profile, the ETF structure allows strategists to quickly and completely change portfolio allocation in a relatively short period of time. Clients have their own idea of what tactical means. The investor experience across different tactical managers can vary dramatically based on manager style, so setting expectations early is even more important in the tactical space. Neil Peplinski, CFA, Manager, Good Harbor Financial, LLC Current Trends and Industry Outlook Along with grabbing the lion s-share of assets and asset growth over the past year, Global strategies were also the go-to choice for new launches in 2010 and Global strategies accounted for 42 of the 64 new offerings. Within the Global space, Equity and Balanced strategies accounted for 70 of that total, as firms have begun expanding their series of asset-allocation products or leveraging their domestic research process within a global asset mandate. Collectively, new Fixed Income launches included the most conservative option in an asset-allocation series and those from firms with long track records on the equity side looking to round out their line up for advisors in a siloed fashion.
10 10 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 Advisors are demanding solutions to reduce risk and capture alpha through volatility. With many ETFs being passive and so many providers offering similar products in competing spaces, advisors are looking to outside asset managers to vet out the correct components that can be assembled into a comprehensive strategy. Skip Motsenbocker, Managing Partner, SignalPoint Asset Management, LLC Asset growth and distribution access remain a key focus for firms providing ETF managed portfolio strategies. The increased interest in unified managed accounts, UMAs, has given some renewed life to traditional separate accounts, and because ETF strategies contain relatively few holdings in a portfolio they are very attractive in this space. Advisors also have the flexibility to allocate capital to multiple strategies inside one overall account, and this demand is expected to continue. With the proliferation of ETFs, we re seeing a lot of product innovation. UMAs are growing at a rate greater than all other fee-based programs. What UMAs have done is usher in an industry transition to model-based delivery of SMA portfolios. The result is massive product growth and innovation in the model delivered strategy space. Randy Bullard, Placemark Investments Overlay management platforms offering outsourced execution (such as Placemark, LPL Financial, TD Ameritrade, and others) are a relatively new option for firms looking to expand access to their strategies but represent a major potential driver for asset growth. In this arrangement, the ETF managed portfolio firm (or any separate account firm more broadly) provides a starting portfolio to the platform. The platform, not the manager, then executes subsequent portfolio changes in all underlying separate accounts and/ or UMAs that have signed-on to track a particular strategy. Again, given the low relative number of holdings in an allor primarily-etf portfolio, this model holds considerable appeal. Strategies gaining access or approval for listing on these platforms have a captive audience of advisors and consultants. As a result, the overlay management platforms will likely continue to be an important distribution channel. For example, firms such as Quantitative Advantage and Cougar Global Investments have seen material growth in assets in their strategies through this format on LPL Financial s Model Wealth Platform. As a result of this evolution in distribution, Morningstar will begin systematically collecting assets under advisement (AUA) for separate account strategies in AUA differs from the more-common assets under management or AUM, in that AUA includes both AUM and assets from these third-party execution platforms (typically referred to as non discretionary assets). AUM typically only includes assets of accounts where the investment manager is directly executing portfolio changes (discretionary assets). As such, AUA is greater than or equal to AUM. We expect growth in non- AUM assets to continue, as firms asset growth comes from a combination of distribution models. Where reported, AUA figures were used in this commentary. Legal structure has also enabled the distribution of ETF managed portfolios. Over the past year, there has been an uptick in the launch of mutual funds and ETFs that primarily invest in underlying ETFs. New launches have been dominated by open-end funds, with just a handful of ETF of ETFs coming to market. Many firms, including Boston Advisors, LLC (Boston Advisors Broad Allocation Strategy BABIX), are leveraging their long-standing separate account strategies into a unitized or regulated vehicle format to increase their distribution opportunities including the retirement and 401(k) space. Some firms, such as Brinton Eaton Associates (Giralda GDAIX), have gone so far as to convert virtually all of their separate account clients into the new mutual fund. Mutual funds and other regulated, pooled investment vehicles offer greater flexibility to access multiple retirement platforms, but this industry norm is undergoing change, as custody and trust platforms servicing the retirement space are developing new ways to provide daily valuation of separate account strategies. Over the coming year, we expect to expand our analysis and commentary of the ETF managed portfolio space across mutual funds and ETFs. We also expect to see more disclosure of both third-party and proprietary strategies to databases such as Morningstar s. The continued traction of the fiduciary standard for financial advisors warrants a higher level of due diligence and research when selecting strategies for a client portfolio. Within the retirement market, we anticipate a growing need for retirement-plan advisors to have access to consistent, standardized information for performing fiduciary due diligence for plan sponsor clients. In addition, many of the wirehouses, national broker-dealers, and regional RIAs offer proprietary, internal separateaccount strategies to their affiliated members, but thus far have not widely reported asset and total-return information to the broader investment community via third-party databases such as Morningstar. The lack of ability to objectively and systematically analyze a strategy along multiple dimensions and against both in-house and third-party alternatives presents a material litigation risk to financial advisors allocating client capital across strategies. As rec-
11 11 ETF Managed s Landscape Report January 2012 ognition of ETF managed portfolio strategies continues to increase, we expect demand for information related to proprietary and rep-as-portfolio-manager composite strategies to increase. In response, we anticipate the depth of information provided by the strategies to also increase. We find there is still a need to understand ETFs themselves how are they structured, traded, and different from an index mutual fund. Then, it s a matter of explaining our process for selecting which ETFs to include in our portfolios, our tactical investment management style and how it improves upon traditional investing. John Wing, CEO, Quantitative Advantage, LLC Education about these strategies and ETFs in general remains a near-term hurdle to deeper penetration into the advisor community. Many platform decision-makers and investment committees face challenges slotting these strategies in an overall asset allocation plan. The tactical nature of many of these strategies is a primary discussion point for many ETF-managed portfolio firms, despite a potential client s attraction to a particular strategy. Some managers even report setbacks in first having to explain what an ETF is and the general benefits of an ETF-only portfolio before getting to their specific strategy. This stumbling block often starts with the investment policy benchmark of a potential client, which often is built around a stock/bond/cash/maybe-some-alternatives construct. From there the client (with the help of a consultant perhaps) historically has picked manager A for stocks manager B for bonds, and so on. Certain ETF-managed portfolio strategies, however, give access to one or more combinations of these asset classes along with new options (including volatility and other market styles or factors) forcing the need for additional education. Success in gathering assets going forward, we believe, will be based on the ability of a firm to educate potential decision-makers both on the benefits of its strategy and also be able to clearly, and simply articulate the benefits within the context of the client s investment policy guidelines.
