Pacer ETFs' 4th Birthday Comes Amid Successful Fund Launches and Explosive AUM Growth


In just four years, Pacer ETFs has grown into a well-regarded and recognized name in the exchange traded fund industry thanks to the success of their thematic, rules-based ETF strategies and the support of financial advisors and investors who believe in the firm's unique strategies. Pacer ETFs, formed after Pacer Advisors was founded by a breakout group of financial industry veterans, celebrates more than their 4th birthday today. The firm now offers 20 rules-based ETFs, and boasts a record AUM of $4.35B, 70+ employees and a brand-new Malvern, PA office.

Pacer ETFs has enjoyed rapid AUM growth which began after they crossed their first billion in assets under management in 2017. By 2018 the firm broke through the two billion mark. Six months later, Pacer blew through the three billion threshold. Within four months of that milestone Pacer ETFs surpassed four billion in assets.

"Our growth is a testament to our commitment to a client-first philosophy and providing rules-based, strategy-driven ETF's that help our investors and financial advisors navigate difficult markets," says Joe Thomson (News - Alert) founder and President of Pacer Financial, "We've stuck to that mission since we established Pacer ETFs and I am proud of the growth we have accomplished so far."

In May, Pacer successfully launched 5 new funds across its Pacer Trendpilot® ETF Series and Pacer Cash Cows Index® ETF Series. The flagship, strategy-driven Trendpilot series added the Pacer Trendpilot International ETF (PTIN) and the Pacer Trendpilot Fund of Funds ETF (TRND). The Pacer Cash Cows Index ETF Series added three new funds: the Pacer US Cash Cows Growth ETF (BUL), the Pacer Emerging Markets Cash Cows 100 ETF (ECOW) and the Pacer Cash Cows Fund of Funds ETF (HERD).



Since June of 2018, Pacer ETFs has added 19 total employees. On the sales front, Pacer has expanded to cover the independent financial advisor channel across the country and boasts 48 members on the sales team. In total, Pacer ETFs now has 71 employees with plans to add additional staff this year to fill their new Malvern, PA office to support their aggressive growth outlook.

"We have enjoyed incredible success at Pacer ETFs, we owe a special thanks to the financial advisors, investors and partners who have assisted in our growth. I know the team at Pacer is looking forward to yet another strong year. We are eager to keep our momentum going and have plans to hire in all areas alongside rolling out new funds and developing more partnerships," says Sean O'Hara, President of Pacer ETFs.
