ABR Dynamic Funds open-end and exchange-traded products are more expensive than similarly distributed funds at other highly-rated asset managers, on average in the second most expensive quintile of category peers. The higher expense profile contributes negatively to the firm's overall stewardship rating and creates a larger performance hurdle. A notable weakness of ABR Dynamic Funds is the inexperience of its longest-tenured managers compared with other asset managers. Managing capital through a full market cycle is a challenging prospect for seasoned managers, but with only five years of average asset-weighted tenure, there's cause for concern. ABR Dynamic Funds has presented a reliable and stable portfolio management culture over the past five years, as evidenced by lower-than-average turnover, strengthening the assessment of the firm's stewardship.
ABR Dynamic Funds has a ways to go to become an industry-standard steward, resulting in a Below Average Parent Pillar rating.
