Greenwich, CT / ACCESSWIRE / October 17,
2013 / Renaissance Capital LLC, a global IPO investment
advisor providing institutional research, investment management and
indexing services, announced the successful launch of the
Renaissance IPO ETF, which is designed to offer investors efficient
exposure to a portfolio of newly public companies prior to their
inclusion in core U.S. equity portfolios. The Renaissance IPO
ETF began trading Wednesday, October 16, on NYSE Arca under the
ticker symbol "IPO."
"The launch of the Renaissance IPO ETF is a direct response to
increased investor demand for systematic exposure to newly listed
IPOs in a low-cost tax-efficient exchange-traded structure," said
Kathleen Smith, Chairman of Renaissance Capital. "When added to
core U.S. equity holdings, a portfolio of unseasoned publicly
traded equities provides investors with more comprehensive exposure
to the full set of U.S. public equities. At Renaissance Capital, we
are pleased to make available another investment tool in addition
to our actively managed Global IPO Fund (symbol: IPOSX), which
purchases IPOs on the offering and in post-IPO trading, to provide
investors with access to the unique returns from this specialized
category of equities."
The Renaissance IPO ETF provides investors with access to the
most economically significant newly public companies by tracking
the rules-based Renaissance IPO Index designed by Renaissance
Capital's research team to hold the largest, most liquid newly
listed U.S. IPOs. New companies are included in the index on a
fast-entry basis on the fifth day of trading, or upon quarterly
review, and are removed after two years when the IPOs become
seasoned stocks. As of September 30, 2013, top holdings in the
index include an 11.0% position in leading social network Facebook
(FB), a 9.8% position in global luxury fashion brand Michael Kors
Holdings (KORS), and a 4.5% position in cloud-based HR platform
Workday (WDAY).
