Dutch asset manager Robeco has launched an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that uses artificial intelligence to pick investing themes in stocks. The launch is part of the fund manager’s broader push into active ETFs, a field in which global assets increased since 2017 from $58 billion to $565 billion last year. Robeco’s $80 billion quantitative investing unit teamed up with experts from its thematic investment group to develop, test and calibrate the firm’s Dynamic Theme ETF, launched in October.
