Greenwich, CT / ACCESSWIRE / October 17, 2013 / Renaissance Capital LLC, a global IPO investment advisor providing institutional research, investment management and indexing services, announced the successful launch of the Renaissance IPO ETF, which is designed to offer investors efficient exposure to a portfolio of newly public companies prior to their inclusion in core U.S. equity portfolios.  The Renaissance IPO ETF began trading Wednesday, October 16, on NYSE Arca under the ticker symbol "IPO."

"The launch of the Renaissance IPO ETF is a direct response to increased investor demand for systematic exposure to newly listed IPOs in a low-cost tax-efficient exchange-traded structure," said Kathleen Smith, Chairman of Renaissance Capital. "When added to core U.S. equity holdings, a portfolio of unseasoned publicly traded equities provides investors with more comprehensive exposure to the full set of U.S. public equities. At Renaissance Capital, we are pleased to make available another investment tool in addition to our actively managed Global IPO Fund (symbol: IPOSX), which purchases IPOs on the offering and in post-IPO trading, to provide investors with access to the unique returns from this specialized category of equities."

The Renaissance IPO ETF provides investors with access to the most economically significant newly public companies by tracking the rules-based Renaissance IPO Index designed by Renaissance Capital's research team to hold the largest, most liquid newly listed U.S. IPOs. New companies are included in the index on a fast-entry basis on the fifth day of trading, or upon quarterly review, and are removed after two years when the IPOs become seasoned stocks. As of September 30, 2013, top holdings in the index include an 11.0% position in leading social network Facebook (FB), a 9.8% position in global luxury fashion brand Michael Kors Holdings (KORS), and a 4.5% position in cloud-based HR platform Workday (WDAY).
