US ETP assets break the $3.0 trillion ceiling fueled byinflows

A Guide to Value ETF DNA

Making sense of all the different Value ETFsIn this report we review all of the Value ETFs with focus on US Large Cap Equities.Overall, we identify 26 different products with about $100bn in assets. Value ETFsare designed to track indices with a focus on cheap stocks, however the path eachof these indices takes to get to that goal can differ significantly. We identify threemain groups of Value ETFs with similar characteristics: Style Mix, Style Pure, andFactor Tilt.

Value ETFs have indeed a Value bias and a clear Financials tiltUnlike other ETFs where the name is not always aligned with the true productexposure, all Value ETFs indeed deliver exposure to Value stocks. The level ofexposure, however, can vary among different Value ETF types. For example, StylePure and Factor Tilt exhibit a higher level of exposure to Value factors relativeto Style Mix. The most popular value metrics are those involving Book Value,followed by those involving Earnings, Sales, Dividends, and Cash Flows. ValueETFs usually have below average P/B, P/E, P/Sales, and P/Cash Flows ratios; andabove average dividend yield. Moreover, all Value ETF types coincide on Financialsbeing their top sector allocation with a significant overweight relative to a USEquity Large Cap benchmark, while having a clear underweight on Technology.However, there are more sector insights beyond these more obvious observations.

Value is in the eye of the beholderAlthough quantifiable, the right Value exposure depends on how you define Value.Thus, the available Value ETFs provide plenty of alternatives to meet differentinvestors' definitions and preferences. If you want something like the headlineindex, but with some Value bias given from sector tilts, then one of the Style MixETFs may be the answer. Or maybe you want something with a more exclusivebasket of Value stocks, then a Style Pure may be what you need. Or maybe youwant to keep a similar sector exposure as the headline index, but with a clearValue bias, or a more concentrated Value play, then a Factor Tilt may be what youare looking for. You even have ETFs for those who want pure long/short factorexposure and active management. Furthermore, you may want something moretraditional that uses just Book Value-based metrics, or maybe you want a moreelaborate Value metric involving a composite of multiple figures.

Appendix C: DefinitionsETP Universe Definitions

Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs)We define an exchange-traded product (ETP) as a secure (funded or collateralized)open-ended exchange-traded equity with no embedded optionality and market-wide appeal to investors. This includes exchange traded funds (ETF), andexchange-traded vehicles (ETV). The vast majority of instruments are ETFs (~98%in AUM).

Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs)ETFs are open-ended funds which are listed on an exchange and offer intra-daydual liquidity to access diversified investments in a transparent, cheap, and taxefficient way. ETFs indexed to equity and fixed income benchmarks are registeredunder the investment company act of 1940. Only physical index replicationtechniques are permissible by this legislation while synthetic replication is notallowed.

Exchange-traded vehicles (ETVs)This terminology typically refers to grantor trusts that exist in the US market.These instruments track primarily commodity benchmarks. They differ fromETFs in that they are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and not theInvestment Company Act of 1940, hence they are not classed as funds. Vehiclesthat replicate commodity benchmarks, more often known as pools, and fundstargeting alternative index returns are formed under the Commodities ExchangeAct and are listed under the 33 Securities Act, and report under 34 Corporate Act.

Management Style or Product Strategy Definitions

BetaThis is the main group with the largest number of products and assets.Within this category we account for all those ETFs that track an index whichemploys a market capitalization weighting methodology, and a simple selectionmethodology usually involving screenings such as minimum market cap andliquidity levels, or profitability levels. ETFs in this group are also referred to as“plain-vanilla” ETFs. Some examples of indices falling within this category are:S&P 500, S&P 400, S&P 600, MSCI EAFE, MSCI EM, Russell 2000, and Russell1000, to name a few.

Beta+In this group we include every product that offers any level of leverage or inverseimplementation. For example, an ETF offering access to twice the daily returnsof the S&P 500 on either direction (long or short) would be classified under thiscategory.

ActiveClassifying products in this group is still easy; basically if the ETF doesn’t trackany index then we classify the fund as active.

Enhanced Beta (aka Smart Beta)This category is reserved for those ETFs that also track an index, but whichfollow more elaborated strategies. After defining an index universe, there aretwo main levers that determine most of the risk/return profile of the index: (1)

the selection criteria, and (2) the weighting criteria. In their selection process,enhanced beta ETFs usually employ additional screening processes and scoringsystems involving multiple factors beyond just minimum market cap and liquiditylevels. For example, they could include growth or value scores, dividends paidor dividend yield, earnings, volatility, or momentum screens, to name a few. Theweighting methodology of enhanced beta ETFs is usually anything but marketcap weighted, it can include simple equal weighting or variations of it, optimizedweights, and other metric-specific weights such as those based on dividendspaid, inverse volatility, dividend yield, fundamental multi factor scores, earnings,and revenues, to name a few. An enhanced beta ETF will either have a non-traditional selection methodology, a non-traditional weighting methodology, or acombination of both.

Product Type Definitions

Asset Allocation ETFsThis group covers all ETFs with exception of levered and inverse products. Theseare usually good products for market access strategies, portfolio completion, andcore positions. They are also efficient building blocks for multi asset strategies.When selecting these products, major emphasis should be set on the desiredexposure, tracking efficiency, primary liquidity (i.e. the liquidity of the underlyingbasket), and cost.

Cash Management ETFsThis group covers a more selected group of ETFs which in addition to beinggood asset allocation tools, also serves a series of cash management portfolioneeds. For example, these products are very good for equitizing cash betweentransitions, around reporting periods (window dressing), and during tax lossharvesting. These ETFs usually have good liquidity, large fund size, and lowcost, all of which makes it easier to execute sizeable short-term transactions,therefore secondary market liquidity and fund size tend to be a more relevantfactor compared to asset allocation ETFs. The most popular asset allocation usageof these funds is as core building blocks.

Pseudo Futures ETFsThis group covers an even more selected sample of ETFs which in additionto being good asset allocation and cash management tools can also be usedfor fulfilling risk management functions such as risk hedging, portable alphastrategies, or tactical shorts. Many times they also trade at a cheaper level thantheir underlying basket, and offer large amounts of liquidity which can make themattractive for market making activities as well. Secondary and short liquidity (easeto borrow), and fund size tend to be more relevant characteristics at the momentof selecting this type of ETFs. There is usually no more than one pseudo futuresETF per asset class. The most popular asset allocation usage of these fundsis among portfolios that require more liquidity given their size or more tacticalnature.

Hypothetical Disclaimer

Backtested, hypothetical or simulated performance results have inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performancerecord based on trading actual client portfolios, simulated results are achieved by means of the retroactive applicationof a backtested model itself designed with the benefit of hindsight. Taking into account historical events the backtestingof performance also differs from actual account performance because an actual investment strategy may be adjustedany time, for any reason, including a response to material, economic or market factors. The backtested performanceincludes hypothetical results that do not reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings or the deduction ofadvisory fees, brokerage or other commissions, and any other expenses that a client would have paid or actually paid.No representation is made that any trading strategy or account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar tothose shown. Alternative modeling techniques or assumptions might produce significantly different results and prove tobe more appropriate. Past hypothetical backtest results are neither an indicator nor guarantee of future returns. Actualresults will vary, perhaps materially, from the analysis.

Equity Rating Key Equity rating dispersion and banking relationships

increases in interest rates naturally lift the discount factors applied to the expected cash flows and thus cause a loss.The longer the maturity of a certain cash flow and the higher the move in the discount factor, the higher will be theloss. Upside surprises in inflation, fiscal funding needs, and FX depreciation rates are among the most common adversemacroeconomic shocks to receivers. But counterparty exposure, issuer creditworthiness, client segmentation, regulation(including changes in assets holding limits for different types of investors), changes in tax policies, currency convertibility(which may constrain currency conversion, repatriation of profits and/or the liquidation of positions), and settlement issuesrelated to local clearing houses are also important risk factors to be considered. The sensitivity of fixed income instrumentsto macroeconomic shocks may be mitigated by indexing the contracted cash flows to inflation, to FX depreciation, or tospecified interest rates – these are common in emerging markets. It is important to note that the index fixings may -- byconstruction -- lag or mis-measure the actual move in the underlying variables they are intended to track. The choice of theproper fixing (or metric) is particularly important in swaps markets, where floating coupon rates (i.e., coupons indexed toa typically short-dated interest rate reference index) are exchanged for fixed coupons. It is also important to acknowledgethat funding in a currency that differs from the currency in which coupons are denominated carries FX risk. Naturally,options on swaps (swaptions) also bear the risks typical to options in addition to the risks related to rates movements.??Derivative transactions involve numerous risks including, among others, market, counterparty default and illiquidity risk.The appropriateness or otherwise of these products for use by investors is dependent on the investors' own circumstancesincluding their tax position, their regulatory environment and the nature of their other assets and liabilities, and as such,investors should take expert legal and financial advice before entering into any transaction similar to or inspired by thecontents of this publication. The risk of loss in futures trading and options, foreign or domestic, can be substantial. As aresult of the high degree of leverage obtainable in futures and options trading, losses may be incurred that are greaterthan the amount of funds initially deposited. Trading in options involves risk and is not suitable for all investors. Priorto buying or selling an option investors must review the "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options”, at http://www.optionsclearing.com/about/publications/character-risks.jsp.
