Top-down idea generation
There are 24,000 listed equities in the world that meet the minimum inclusion criteria for an ETF. How do we generate investment ideas?
Bottom-up security selection
At Tema we only invest in stocks that meet our four pillars – solid operating base, good balance sheet and cash flow profile, an attractive valuation case and having an edge.
Systematic portfolio construction
Portfolio construction is often a neglected area among active equity managers. At Tema, based on academic and best practice, we have built what we believe to be a portfolio construction process that harnesses the best of stock picking alpha.
Risk management
When it comes to risk management, Tema employs multiple layers to have a much higher chance of catching and preventing failures.

Risk Information
Carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Fund’s prospectus or summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting www.temaetfs.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.
Diversification does not ensure profits or prevent losses.
Investing involves risk including possible loss of principal. The Funds may invest a significant portion of their assets in one or more sectors and thus will be more susceptible to the risks affecting those sectors than funds that have more diversified holdings across a number of sectors. There is no guarantee the adviser’s investment will be successful in identifying and investing in thematic trends.
The small- and mid-capitalization companies in which the Funds invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies, and may underperform other segments of the market or the equity market as a whole.
The Tema Alternative Investment Managers ETF prospectus was filed with the SEC on August 31st, 2022. Investing in the fund is not yet possible. Please see a copy of the prospectus linked here.
International and emerging market investing may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuations in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles, or from economic or political instability in other nations. Frontier markets generally have less developed capital markets than traditional emerging market countries, and, consequently, the risks of investing in foreign securities are magnified in such countries.
Because the Funds evaluate ESG factors to assess and exclude certain investments for non-financial reasons, the Funds may forego some market opportunities available to funds that do not use these ESG factors.
