VistaShares Launches ETF Offering Pure Exposure™ to the Artificial Intelligence Supercycle™
[December 4th 2024] – BITA, a leading company specializing in investment customization infrastructure and indexing solutions, today announced an exciting partnership with VistaShares to launch the VistaShares Artificial Intelligence Supercycle ETF (Ticker: AIS).
This ETF is designed to provide pure, diversified exposure to one of the most transformative trends shaping the future: artificial intelligence (AI). With BITA’s innovative methodology, AIS offers a detailed and robust focus on supply chain dynamics, ensuring investors benefit from every layer of the AI supercycle.
Supercycles are redefining how investors view opportunities in emerging markets, and AI sits at the heart of these trends, influencing industries and driving innovation. VistaShares’ AIS ETF delivers true Pure Exposure™ to the AI theme through a unique “Bill of Materials” (BoM) approach. This methodology ensures that investors gain targeted access to the full spectrum of each supercycle, from upstream innovators to midstream contributors, unlike traditional thematic ETFs which may focus primarily on large-cap technology companies.
Victor Hugo Gomez, CEO of BITA, commented:
“The strength of this ETF lies in the refined and meticulous approach we’ve taken to index construction. By working closely with industry experts, we’ve ensured that the index captures accurately the bill of materials, and consequently the true economic drivers of AI. This approach sets the product apart, and has allowed VistaShares to deliver an ETF that gives investors access to meaningful growth opportunities in a sector driving the future of the global economy.”
The AIS ETF is built on the BITA VistaShares Artificial Intelligence Supercycle Index. Crafted by our team of experts, the index uses a rigorous rules-based methodology and forward-looking BoM analysis to precisely map the AI theme. This ensures that only companies with significant economic exposure are included, offering a truly pure and thematic investment approach.
Adam Patti, CEO of VistaShares, commented:
“At VistaShares, we’re thrilled to partner with BITA to introduce the AIS ETF, which redefines thematic investing through precise exposure to the AI trend. Our shared focus on accurate economic representation and comprehensive value chain analysis allows us to deliver investment products that truly capture the growth potential of this transformative supercycle.”
