NEW YORK, August 15, 2023 – Fred Alger Management, LLC (“Alger”), a privately-owned $22 billion growth equity investment manager, today announced that John Stergiou has joined as Senior Vice President, Head of National Accounts. He will be responsible for expanding the firm’s business development efforts across the retail channel. John will report to Fred Alger & Company, LLC, President and Chief Distribution Officer Christoph Hofmann, CFA.

“I am delighted to join Alger and help to broaden and cultivate the firm’s relationships with leaders at wirehouses, broker-dealers, and RIAs,” said John. “I believe we are uniquely positioned to provide our growth equity strategies to financial professionals and their clients, and I look forward to continuing to help Alger expand its presence with this key client base.”

John, who has 23 years of financial services experience, was responsible for developing and managing key wealth management relationships at Virtus Investment Partners before joining Alger. Prior to that, he spent more than a decade at Allianz Global Investors as a Senior National Accounts Manager and was Co-Head of the National Accounts team. John earned a B.S. in Finance and Communications from the Carroll School of Management at Boston College.

“I am thrilled to welcome John to Alger, and I believe his background and experience will help us expand our sales and client servicing in the retail channel. Additionally, John’s deep product knowledge, especially with SMAs, ETFs, interval and closed-end funds will be valuable as these vehicle types are future growth opportunities for Alger,” said Christoph.

​Risk Disclosures:
Investing in the stock market involves risks, including the potential loss of principal. Growth stocks may be more volatile than other stocks as their prices tend to be higher in relation to their companies’ earnings and may be more sensitive to market, political, and economic developments. Local, regional or global events such as environmental or natural disasters, war, terrorism, pandemics, outbreaks of infectious diseases and similar public health threats, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on investments. This material is not meant to provide investment advice and should not be considered a recommendation to purchase or sell securities.​​

ETF Investors

This ETF is different from traditional ETFs.

Traditional ETFs tell the public what assets they hold each day. This ETF will not. This may create additional risks for your investment. Specifically:

You may have to pay more money to trade the ETF’s shares. This ETF will provide less information to traders, who tend to charge more for trades when they have less information.

The price you pay to buy ETF shares on an exchange may not match the value of the ETF’s portfolio. The same is true when you sell shares. These price differences may be greater for this ETF compared to other ETFs because it provides less information to traders.

These additional risks may be even greater in bad or uncertain market conditions.

The differences between this ETF and other ETFs may also have advantages. By keeping certain information about the ETF confidential, this ETF may face less risk that other traders can predict or copy its investment strategy. This may improve the ETF’s performance. If other traders are able to copy or predict the ETF’s investment strategy, however, this may hurt the ETF’s performance. For additional information regarding the unique attributes and risks of this ETF, please refer to the prospectus.
