Jeffrey Sherman, Deputy Chief Investment Officer of DoubleLine, said, “The methodologies through which active investment services are delivered continue to evolve, particularly with respect to exchange-traded funds. Through Precidian’s ActiveShares® structure, DoubleLine can safeguard the edge of our investment team’s research, asset selection and portfolio construction while providing ETF investors with access to our active investment management.”

“Working with the team at DoubleLine, as they evaluated the ActiveShares® opportunity, was a pleasure,” said Precidian CEO Dan McCabe. “Given the DoubleLine team’s self-evident expertise in the asset management space, it is our belief that they will be very successful in the ETF arena and that their clients will benefit from this added diversity within their product offerings.”
