Eagle Capital Launches Eagle Capital Select Equity ETF (EAGL)

Eagle Capital Management (Eagle), an independent asset manager based in New York City, today launched its first exchange-traded fund, the Eagle Capital Select Equity ETF (NYSE Arca: EAGL).

Eagle, founded in 1988, manages a public equity strategy with assets under management of more than $26 billion. The new EAGL ETF relies on the same focused investment philosophy Eagle has deployed since its inception. This disciplined approach is rooted in fundamental research, a strong value orientation and a long-term investment horizon, resulting in a concentrated, high-conviction portfolio.

“Eagle always puts clients first, and we are launching this ETF because of strong demand from our clients and their advisors who recognize the benefits of this vehicle, including its simplicity, liquidity, potential for greater tax efficiency, and ease of use in asset allocation. We welcome the opportunity to participate in the growth of active ETFs and their increasing use by sophisticated investors, their advisors, and asset allocators,” said Michael Falcon, Eagle’s Chief Executive Officer.

The Eagle investment strategy is managed by its CIO team, led by Alec Henry, Managing Chief Investment Officer, who is also the Portfolio Manager of EAGL. Eagle’s seasoned investment team of 10 investment professionals has an average of 23 years of experience.

“Our North Star is buying undervalued companies with unrecognized long-term growth potential, and our aim is to protect, preserve, and grow our clients’ capital. Eagle’s focus on the long-term differentiates us from most other managers in an increasingly short-term oriented investment landscape, and we are fortunate to have enduring clients who share our vision and have conviction in our capabilities,” said Mr. Henry.

The launch of EAGL is a direct result of the firm’s focus on clients and responding to their needs, with a number of Eagle clients deciding to convert separately managed accounts to shares of EAGL. EAGL was launched in partnership with the Goldman Sachs ETF Accelerator, a digital platform that enables Goldman Sachs’ clients to launch, list, and manage ETFs quickly and efficiently.
