Global X Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF(AMEX:GXIG)

GCIG provides segmented exposure to the global fixed income market by actively investing in investment grade corporate bonds. The fund primarily selects bonds included in its reference index, allowing 20% of its portfolio for other debt securities. It uses a quantitative model and deep neural network to screen and analyze potential constituents, dividing them into peer groups based on market-based and fundamental-based factors. Securities are then ranked for review. Typically, one or more securities are selected from each peer group, but managers may also decide to skip a group. Geographic exposure of the portfolio is not limited to the US, with 35% allocated to foreign investment. Derivatives may also be used, including options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. Due to the funds active management, investment decisions are at the discretion of the adviser, including investments in high yield securities.
