AB International Low Volatility Equity ETF (ILOW)

The AB International Low Volatility Equity ETF is an actively managed fund from AllianceBernstein. It invests in stocks of companies outside the United States with the aim of delivering equity market exposure with lower volatility than the broad international market.

Rather than simply tracking a low-volatility index, AllianceBernstein's managers combine quantitative screening with fundamental research to favor high-quality, stable businesses whose share prices have historically moved less sharply. The portfolio can include companies from developed and emerging markets. ILOW brings AllianceBernstein's international low-volatility equity approach, which seeks to participate in rising markets while cushioning declines, into an exchange-traded fund.
