- FCF International Quality ETF (TTAI) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to generate long-term returns in excess of the S&P Developed ex-U.S. BMI Index through a proprietary selection process focused on international companies exhibiting strong free cash flow and quality characteristics; the fund invests primarily in equity securities of developed and emerging market companies outside the United States, with allocations across large-cap (approximately 76%), mid-cap (20%), and other holdings spanning sectors such as technology services, retail trade, health technology, producer manufacturing, and energy minerals. Top holdings typically include global leaders like Roche Holding AG, Accenture PLC, Novo Nordisk A/S, BHP Group Ltd, and Novartis AG, alongside American Depositary Receipts and preferred equities from regions including Europe (52%), Asia Pacific (21%), and North/Central/South America (26%); the fund maintains around 135-161 holdings for diversification, with an expense ratio of 59 basis points and assets under management of approximately $60-104 million. TTAI distributes dividends quarterly, targeting investors seeking total market exposure to foreign large-cap equities with similar volatility to broad international benchmarks.
Launched on June 27, 2017, by TrimTabs ETF Trust, with investment advisory services provided by FCF Advisors LLC (formerly TrimTabs Asset Management), headquartered in New York, NY, and Orlando, FL; the ETF trades on BATS under the ticker TTAI. FCF Advisors, a spinoff from TrimTabs Investment Research in 2011, rebranded from TrimTabs Asset Management to FCF Advisors in March 2022 to emphasize its free cash flow investing methodology, accompanied by new branding and websites for its ETF and advisory businesses; in November 2024, Abacus Life acquired FCF Advisors, managing around $600-800 million in assets, with the acquisition closing in Q4 2024 and full rebranding of FCF Advisors completed by February 2025, including integration into Abacus' wealth management expansion and potential new ETF launches. These changes align TTAI with Abacus FCF Advisors' broader suite of five ETFs, three index strategies, and separately managed accounts focused on free cash flow screening for institutional and ETF investors.
