- AGFiQ U.S. Market Neutral Size Fund (SIZ) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks investment results corresponding to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Dow Jones U.S. Thematic Market Neutral Size Total Return Index. The fund employs a market-neutral strategy with long positions in small-cap U.S. equities and short positions in large-cap U.S. equities, determined by float-adjusted market capitalization, across diversified sectors to provide exposure to the size factor while aiming for sector and market neutrality; it invests in growth and value stocks without directional market bias. Launched in 2011 as part of the QuantShares/AGFiQ suite managed by AGF Investments LLC, a U.S. registered investment adviser and subsidiary of AGF Management Limited (founded 1957, headquartered in Toronto, Canada), the fund operates primarily in the U.S. equity market targeting institutional and retail investors seeking alternative beta strategies. In November 2019, AGF Investments announced the closure and liquidation of the AGFiQ U.S. Market Neutral Size Fund, with trading ceasing on December 11, 2019, and final liquidation occurring on or about December 30, 2019, driven by low assets under management, small investor base, and efforts to streamline the product lineup. This followed earlier strategic moves, including AGF's 2017 launch of the AGFiQ quantitative ETF platform combining expertise from AGF, Highstreet Asset Management, and FFCM LLC, and the 2018 completion of AGF's full acquisition of FFCM to bolster quantitative capabilities. Subsequent AGFiQ fund actions included the 2020 closure of the related AGFiQ U.S. Market Neutral Value Fund (CHEP), reflecting ongoing portfolio rationalization, while active AGFiQ-branded ETFs like AGF U.S. Market Neutral Anti-Beta Fund (BTAL) continue under AGF Investments. The fund delisted from NYSE Arca post-liquidation, with shares automatically redeemed, potentially triggering taxable events for shareholders.
