Invesco NASDAQ Future Gen 200 ETF
Innovative ETF tracking 200 small-cap Nasdaq companies by patent value
Company Overview
Invesco NASDAQ Future Gen 200 ETF (QQQS) is not an NVOCC or maritime shipping company, but rather an exchange-traded fund (ETF) managed by Invesco Ltd. QQQS is designed to provide investors with exposure to 200 small-cap and micro-cap companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, selected based on the estimated value of their patent portfolios. The ETF specifically excludes companies in the Nasdaq-100 and Nasdaq Next Generation 100 indices, focusing on firms with high innovation potential as indicated by intellectual property assets. The fund employs a passive investment strategy, tracking the Nasdaq Innovators Completion Cap Index, which is constructed using a proprietary patent valuation methodology developed by IPR Strategies. This approach aims to identify companies that are leaders in research and development and possess valuable intellectual property, which may signal future growth and innovation. QQQS is part of the Invesco QQQ Innovation Suite, which offers investors modular access to innovative companies across different market capitalizations. The ETF is rebalanced quarterly and reconstituted semi-annually to ensure it maintains its focus on the most promising small-cap innovators. The fund is structured as an open-ended investment vehicle and does not engage in shipping, logistics, or containerized freight operations. Its assets under management and performance are determined by the collective value of its holdings in the selected Nasdaq-listed companies.
