American Beacon chairman and CEO Gene Needles said: “We believe the launch of this strategy as a U.S. ‘40 Act vehicle is timely.

“By design, this Fund is adaptive and capable of dynamically maneuvering through various market environments, potentially making it an attractive solution for investors seeking to diversify their portfolios as the U.S. bull market ages.”
