LGHT

Langar Global HealthTech ETF

LGHT Description

LGHT targets the global healthcare technology industry. The fund actively invests in HealthTech companies, which the adviser defines as firms that develop technology designed to create healthcare efficiency by addressing key pain points for patients, providers, payors, and hospitals, including those companies that derive a majority of their revenue from HealthTech products and services. The portfolio construction starts by identifying companies that fit into the advisers HealthTech definition. The remaining companies are screened using a proprietary metric that assesses each firms financial health, involvement in relevant controversies, as well as the strength of its team and culture. Each company is then assigned an industry risk score through an algorithm that defines quantitative and qualitative risk categories and weights them accordingly. Finally, each company is reviewed by an investment committee. However, the portfolio manager still has full discretion over the final selection.
