AB International Growth ETF(AMEX:IGGY)

IGGY is actively managed and invests in equity securities of non-US companies, including firms across at least three countries outside the US. Using a bottom-up, research-driven approach, it seeks companies with strong profitability, competitive advantages, experienced management, and potential for long-term growth. Companies are analyzed based on three primary qualities: structural growth, quality, and valuation. Structural growth is evaluated through business models, innovation, and secular market growth drivers, while quality focuses on balance sheet strength, barriers to entry, and competitive position. Valuation, on the other hand, considers long-term potential relative to current market value. The fund includes companies of all market-caps and industries, with possible emphasis on emerging markets at times, which may represent a significant portion of the portfolio. Its investment objective is long-term capital growth.
