Pacer ETFs unifies Cash Cows fund series by renaming Pacer Global High Dividend ETF

Pacer Global High Dividend ETF was renamed Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF

PAOLI, Pa.--()--Pacer ETFs announces that as of Friday, January 13, 2017, the BATS Global Markets-listed “Pacer Global High Dividend ETF” (PGHD) will now be called the “Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF” (GCOW, the “fund”). The name of the fund’s underlying index has also changed to the Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend Index (the “Index”). Only the name of the Index is affected by this change. All other aspects of the Index, including its components, value and methodology, remain unchanged.

The new ticker for the fund will be “GCOW”.

The name changes follow the unveiling of Pacer ETFs’ newest fund series, The Pacer Cash Cows Fund Series. Each of the funds in the new series is based on a free cash flow yield strategy. Considering the Pacer Global High Dividend ETF, launched in February of 2016, also employs a similar strategy surrounding free cash flow yield, its name was changed in an effort to unify this product line. The Pacer Cash Cows Fund Series is now comprised of the Pacer US Cash Cows 100 ETF (COWZ) and the Pacer Global Cash Cows Dividend ETF (GCOW). Pacer ETFs expects to add to the series with the launch of two new funds, also with free cash flow yield strategies, in the near future.

“This name change reflects Pacer ETFs’ mission to provide passive management strategies that allow investors to navigate turbulent markets,” says Sean O’Hara, president of Pacer ETF Distributors. “We’ve seen tremendous demand for our free cash flow yield strategies. Bringing our dividend strategy into the Cash Cows ETF series helps simplify our product line and reinforces our commitment to the free cash flow yield strategy.”
