In this episode of ETF Spotlight, I speak with Andrew Beer, Managing Member at Dynamic Beta investments, about hedge fund replication ETFs that have significantly outperformed the broader indexes this year.
Dynamic Beta and iM Global Partners offer several hedge fund strategies in cost-effective and transparent vehicles. They aim to replicate the core exposures of leading hedge funds with highly liquid instruments.
Andrew, who has worked with value investing legend Seth Klarman, believes while the hedge fund industry still generates a lot of alpha, it is consumed by the fee structure. He aims to bring Jack Bogle’s investment philosophy to hedge funds.
The iMGP DBi Managed Futures Strategy ETF (DBMF) takes long and short positions in derivatives, primarily futures contracts and forward contracts, across equities, fixed income, currencies, and commodities. It is up more than 30% this year and has gathered over $1 billion in assets.
The IMGP DBi Hedge Strategy ETF (DBEH) seeks to match or exceed the performance of a portfolio of forty leading equity long/short hedge funds using a factor replication strategy. The fund employs long and short positions in derivatives across major asset classes.
We discuss how these products work and whether there is a role for these complicated strategies within a portfolio.
Tune in to the podcast to learn more.
