Both funds aim to track the total return performance of their respective S&P 3AI indexes, offering a differentiated, AI-powered approach to equity investing.

3AI’s investment process applies machine learning models to analyze a wide range of data inputs, including company fundamentals, market data, and macroeconomic indicators, to generate forward-looking alpha predictions. These forecasts are incorporated into index construction through a transparent governance framework maintained by S&P Dow Jones Indices, with built-in controls, validation procedures and human oversight, as well as sector and security caps and periodic rebalancing.
“The S&P 500 3AI Top 100 Index and the S&P World 3AI Top 300 Index are AI-based indexes designed to track companies with the highest 12-month excess return forecasts, generated by 3AI’s machine learning models that analyze company data and market signals and leverage S&P DJI’s robust index construction, governance, and transparency efforts. Enhanced benchmarking,” said Rupert Watts, Head of Factors. S&P Dow Jones Indices Dividends. “We are pleased to work with Pacer to provide access to intelligent and adaptive investment solutions. This underscores our continued commitment to delivering high-quality, forward-looking indexes powered by AI-powered technology and insights.”
