Harbor Capital Advisors, Inc. ("Harbor"), an asset manager that curates a suite of actively-managed ETFs, mutual funds, and collective investment trusts, has added the Harbor PanAgora Dynamic U.S. Large Cap Core ETF (Ticker: INFO) to its growing lineup of ETF offerings.
INFO is managed by PanAgora Asset Management, Inc. (“PanAgora”), a leader in the quant space with over 35 years of experience. The firm leverages a strong research platform, an extensive alpha factor library, and leading technology to drive a systematic investment process.
INFO utilizes PanAgora’s distinctive alpha model to build a portfolio that aims to outperform the S&P 500 over a market cycle. The Fund may be appropriate as a substitute for passive S&P 500 exposure or as a complement to active, fundamental approaches driven by PanAgora’s proprietary alpha model.
Kristof Gleich, President & CIO at Harbor Capital Advisors said, “Our partnership with PanAgora is a continuation of our commitment to identifying and partnering with differentiated boutiques that we believe can generate strong returns for our investors. We think INFO could serve as a cornerstone in client portfolios. We particularly like their mindset of continuous improvement and commitment to thoughtfully improving their model with new signals as opportunities present themselves – dynamic research is key, especially in this era where data and technology continue to evolve at a rapid pace.”
Gleich added, “We believe INFO offers a compelling opportunity to showcase the benefits of a storied, systematic approach to the large cap equities space.”
The Harbor PanAgora Dynamic U.S. Large Cap Core ETF seeks to give access to potential alpha generation with a total expense ratio of 35 basis points.
