Product Overview

What We Offer 

 

At RBA, our disciplined investment approach seeks to identify unique investment opportunities that are often unrecognized or ignored as uncertain investors focus on yesterday’s winners. We generate alpha by uncovering global investment styles and themes where we believe there are disparities between fundamentals and sentiment. This is very different from the traditional, bottom-up approach that seeks to generate alpha through individual security selection.

 

Our differentiated approach guides all of the products & strategies that we offer:

 

 ETF SMAs Mutual Funds UITs ETFs Institutional
  • Conservative
  • Moderate
  • Risk-Balanced Moderate
  • Aggressive
  • All-Asset
  • Equity
  • Eaton Vance Richard Bernstein Equity Strategy Fund
  • Eaton Vance Richard Bernstein All-Asset Strategy Fund
  • Global Dividend Kings®
  • American Industrial Renaissance®
  • Quality Income Portfolio 
  • First Trust RBA American Industrial Renaissance®
  • First Trust Strategic Income
  • Global Equity
  • Global Tactical Asset Allocation

 

 

Where We're Available 

ETF SMAs

RBA offers several asset allocation ETF-driven separately managed account portfolios.  Each strategy is tailored to meet your clients’ risk tolerance—whether they’re risk averse (conservative strategy) or risk-taking investors (aggressive strategy).  You can find our ETF SMA strategies through select broker-dealers and RIA platforms:

Indexes

RBA offers two thematic indexes and one diversified, multi-asset index: 

 

   Investment Strategy    Ticker    Objective
  RBA American Industrial Renaissance® Index   RBAAIRR

The RBA American Industrial Renaissance® Index (“the Index”) intends to capture what is, in our view, a secular investment theme pertaining to companies in the U.S. small and mid-cap industrial and community banking sectors.

  RBA Quality Income® Index   RBAQI

The RBA Quality Income Index® (“the Index”) seeks to capture companies which provide an attractive level of income while controlling the risks associated with investing in higher-yielding dividend stocks.

  RBA G5 Index    RBAEG5

The RBA G5 Index (the “Index”) is a diversified multi-asset index that seeks to provide
exposure to US asset classes in a risk-controlled manner with a goal of limiting its daily annualized volatility to 5%.

 

Institutional:

RBA has two global, macro-driven investment strategies for institutional investors, Global Equity and Global Tactical Asset Allocation, both of which offer liquidity and low fees.  We consider our investment process to be a combination of art and science and offer investors full transparency into all aspects of portfolio construction.  We provide solutions for a variety of investors, including endowments, foundations, pension plans, high net worth individuals, and many others.
