JP Morgan’s asset management suggested converting mutual funds into ETFs | Jobs Vox

new york, December 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — JP Morgan Asset Management has announced plans to convert select US mutual funds into ETFs by 2022, following the successful conversion of four mutual funds into ETFs.

The proposed conversions, subject to Fund Board approval, are expected to provide benefits to mutual fund investors, including lower net costs (for at least three years from each conversion date). The added trading flexibility, transparency of portfolio holdings and potential for improved tax efficiency that come with ETFs will be of great value to many investors, and JP Morgan believes these unique strategies are well-suited to the ETF structure. The combined assets of the funds proposed for conversion are approx. 2 billion dollars (Effective 11/30/2022).

The board is expected to consider these conversions in February 2023. If approved, the following mutual funds will convert to actively managed open-end ETFs with investment strategies similar to existing mutual funds:

By converting these four mutual funds into actively managed ETFs, JP Morgan offers active investment options in areas where investors typically look to mostly passive ETF solutions. If the board does not approve the conversions for any reason, then they will not happen.

JP Morgan Asset Management is announcing the proposed conversion plans in advance to provide shareholders and distributors with sufficient notice of the proposed conversions and to engage with JP Morgan in the implications of this important effort. If the conversions are approved by the fund’s board, it is expected that they will not require shareholder approval prior to implementation.
