Nasdaq Lists The Global X SuperDividend(R) Alternatives ETF
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
One Stop Alternative Income Solution Offers Investors High Income Potential and
Lower Volatility
NEW YORK, July 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Nasdaq announced that Global X Funds
will list a new exchange-traded fund (ETF), the Global X SuperDividend(®
)Alternatives ETF (Symbol: ALTY), which will begin trading on The Nasdaq Stock
Market Tuesday, July 14, 2015.
"After a six-year bull market and the looming threat of rising interest rates,
investors are increasingly looking for investment opportunities outside of the
traditional equity and fixed income asset classes," said Jay Jacobs, Research
Analyst at Global X Funds. "We are excited to offer an alternatives-based
solution that can potentially generate high portfolio income while diversifying
potential sources of returns."
ALTY seeks to provide investors with access to a variety of alternative income
generating assets, including MLPs & Infrastructure, Real Estate, Institutional
Managers, and Fixed Income & Derivative Strategies. The fund's index methodology
selects among the highest dividend yielding securities in each category of
alternatives to increase the fund's income potential. Alternatives are generally
known for lower volatility compared to equities. ALTY's methodology aims to
further reduce volatility through its selection and weighting of components. By
combining a variety of alternative investments into one ETF, ALTY strives to
solve investors' decisions as to which alternatives to consider for their income
portfolio and how to allocate among them.
"We are delighted that Global X has once again chosen Nasdaq as the listing
venue for their new ETF," said Jeff McCarthy, Vice President, Head of ETP
Listings at Nasdaq. "Global X continues to bring dynamic and innovative products
