WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., March 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Intech today announced that its exchange-traded fund lineup has surpassed $250 million in combined assets under management, marking a significant milestone as the Intech S&P Large Cap Diversified Alpha ETF (LDGX) and the Intech S&P Small-Mid Cap Diversified Alpha ETF (SMDX) reach their one-year anniversary. Both ETFs trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
The milestone reflects demand from financial advisors and institutional allocators seeking systematic approaches to core equity exposure amid evolving market structure dynamics.
Over the past year, U.S. equity markets have remained highly concentrated, with a narrow group of stocks accounting for a disproportionate share of index weight and index risk. Periods of elevated dispersion and episodic volatility have prompted advisors to reassess how core exposure is constructed, monitored, and governed within diversified portfolios.
"Crossing $250 million within our first year is an important milestone for Intech's institutional process in the ETF structure," said Dr. José Marques, CEO of Intech. "Our approach draws on principles rooted in Stochastic Portfolio Theory, emphasizing diversification and rebalancing as potential return sources. Advisors are increasingly focused on how portfolios are built -- not just what they hold."
Intech's ETFs are designed to maintain benchmark-aware exposure while systematically redistributing risk across the index holdings. Rather than relying on individual stock forecasts, the strategies apply a disciplined framework that seeks to harness volatility and correlation dynamics within core equity allocations.
- LDGX provides large-cap U.S. equity exposure through a disciplined, diversification-driven process.
- SMDX applies the same framework to small- and mid-cap equities, where breadth and volatility can create conditions suitable for Intech's approach.
"The first year has reinforced the importance of portfolio structure," said André Prawoto, Head of Strategy at Intech. "As concentration levels remain elevated, advisors may be evaluating whether core equity exposure should be more intentionally governed. Our ETFs offer a systematic framework designed to complement traditional passive and active approaches."
The ETFs are available across major custodial and brokerage platforms for use in advisor and institutional portfolios.
As the firm enters its second year in the ETF market, Intech remains focused on disciplined portfolio engineering and expanding advisor access to its systematic framework.

PRINCIPAL RISKS: Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Because the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate, there is a risk that you may lose money. The Funds' principal risks include equity market risk, volatility risk, and market capitalization risk. Equity Market Risk: Stock prices can fluctuate significantly due to economic, political, and market conditions. The Fund's investments in equities may experience sudden declines or prolonged downturns. Volatility Risk: The Fund's strategy leverages stock price volatility to optimize index exposure, but market swings can be unpredictable. High volatility may lead to short-term price fluctuations that could impact performance, particularly during periods of extreme market stress. Market Capitalization Risk: Large-cap stocks may be less volatile but offer slower growth. Small- and mid-cap stocks can experience higher volatility and liquidity risks.
Diversification may not protect against market risk or principal loss. It does not guarantee a profit or protect against losses in declining markets.
ETFs trade like stocks, fluctuate in value, and may trade at bid-ask spreads or at a premium or discount to NAV, particularly during periods of market stress. Brokerage commissions and fund expenses will reduce returns.
