Man Group Launches Two New ETFs for US Market
Man Group has expanded its US wealth offering with the launch of two new, actively managed ETFs listed on Nasdaq. The funds aim to provide capital growth over the medium to long term.
Man Group, a global alternative investment manager, has launched two new actively managed Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) for the US wealth market. The Man Active Emerging Markets Alternatives ETF (MEMA) and the Man Active Trend Enhanced ETF (MATE) were listed on Nasdaq in December 2025, bringing the firm's total US ETF offering to four.
MEMA will invest at least 80% of its net assets in equity and equity-related securities of emerging market issuers. The fund's strategy involves identifying stocks with prospects for long-term value creation, using data-driven models and machine learning with human oversight. The fund aims to systematically optimize return, risk, and costs, targeting companies with strong fundamentals and long-term growth potential.
MATE employs a quantitative model to identify investment opportunities across global markets. It combines exposure to the US equity market with a systematic trend-following overlay across global futures markets, seeking to enhance portfolio resilience through different market regimes. The strategy aims to replicate S&P 500 exposure while deploying spare cash into momentum models across various asset classes.
Man Group stated that these launches make institutional-grade alternative strategies accessible to a wider audience. The firm believes the funds will complement traditional stock-bond allocations, improve diversification, and enhance portfolio construction efficiency through disciplined, quantitative investing.
