Secretive active ETFs lose out to their fully transparent rivals
September 5, 2023--The portfolio-shielding models had a strong start when they were approved in 2019, but have failed to gain traction

The new "portfolio-shielding" models were expected to encourage actively managed funds to enter the ETF market, something many active managers had been reluctant to do because they feared daily holdings disclosures would reveal their "secret sauce", allowing other investors to front-run their funds and steal their intellectual property.
