Rockefeller Global Investment Management Celebrates Two-Year Anniversary of Opportunistic Municipal Bond ETFs with Continued Benchmark Outperformance

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rockefeller Global Investment Management (“Rockefeller”), the asset management division of Rockefeller Capital Management, marks the two-year anniversary of its municipal bond ETFs: Rockefeller Opportunistic Municipal Bond ETF (RMOP), Rockefeller California Municipal Bond ETF (RMCA), and Rockefeller New York Municipal Bond ETF (RMNY).

The ETFs are managed by veteran portfolio managers Scott Cottier, CFA, Mark DeMitry, CFA, and Michael Camarella, CFA who joined Rockefeller in 2024, after their tenure managing the Invesco Rochester municipal bond strategies.

In its first two years, RMOP outperformed its benchmark by 236 basis points annualized (since inception as of August 12, 2026), returning 5.21% annualized. The benchmark (60% Bloomberg High Yield Municipal Index/40% Municipal Bond Index) has returned 2.85% annualized since the Fund’s inception.

“Rockefeller’s municipal bond strategies continue to resonate with long-term investors seeking tax-efficient opportunities,” said Casey Clark, President of Rockefeller Global Investment Management. “Our disciplined approach and longstanding commitment to active management and bottom-up fundamental analysis have resulted in RMOP’s strong track record.”

Rockefeller’s actively managed municipal ETFs seek to provide exposure across high-yield and high-grade segments of the municipal bond market to deliver risk-adjusted returns. Since inception on August 12, 2024, RMOP has leveraged a bottom-up approach that seeks to capitalize on inefficiencies across the municipal bond market to deliver tax-advantaged, yield-driven total-return for investors.

“Our team’s approach allows us to navigate the complex and fragmented nature of the municipal market, leveraging deep expertise and relationships that lead to better access,” said Cottier. “We are able to efficiently and effectively adjust to shifting market dynamics to help create stronger outcomes for investors.”

RMOP currently has $458.6 million in assets under management as of August 31, 2026.

Disclosures

1 Benchmark is a blend of 60% Bloomberg High Yield Municipal Index and 40% Municipal Bond Index. The Bloomberg Municipal Bond High Yield Total Return Unhedged Index is designed to track the total return performance of the high-yield segment of the U.S. municipal bond market. The Bloomberg U.S. Municipal Bond Index covers the USD-denominated long-term tax-exempt bond market. The index has four main sectors: state and local general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, insured bonds and prerefunded bonds.

2 Alpha is a measure of the active return on an investment; the performance of that investment compared with a suitable market index.

3 The market price is the most recent price at which the fund was traded.

4 A fund’s Net Asset Value (NAV) is the sum of all its assets less any liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For a prospectus or summary prospectus with this and other information about the Fund, please call (888) 123-4589 or visit our website at www.rockefelleretfs.com. Read the prospectus or summary prospectus carefully before investing.

Investing involves risk, including risk of loss. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Expense Ratio is a percentage that reflects the fee you pay to an investment fund each year. The lower the expense ratio, the better, as it reduces your returns. Expense ratios are usually deducted from total revenue generated by a fund.

Municipal Securities Risk. Municipal securities are subject to the risk that litigation, legislation or other political events, local business or economic conditions, credit rating downgrades, or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuer’s ability to make payments of principal and/or interest or otherwise affect the value of such securities.

Interest Rate Risk. Generally, the value of fixed income securities will change inversely with changes in interest rates. As interest rates rise, the market value of fixed income securities tends to decrease.

High Yield Securities Risk. High-yield municipal bonds are considered speculative investments and are issued by entities that may be undergoing restructuring, are smaller or less creditworthy, or are more heavily indebted than other issuers.

Call Risk. The Fund may invest in callable bonds. If interest rates fall, it is possible that issuers of callable securities will “call” (or prepay) their bonds before their maturity date.

Fixed Income Risk. The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to changes in an issuer’s credit rating or market perceptions about the creditworthiness of an issuer.

High Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may actively and frequently trade a significant portion of the Fund’s holdings. A high portfolio turnover rate increases transaction costs, which may increase the Fund’s expenses.

Leveraging Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that certain transactions of the Fund (e.g., Inverse Floaters), may give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. This means that leverage entails a heightened risk of loss.

Liquidity Risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector.

New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized management investment company with limited operating history. As a result, prospective investors have a limited track record or history on which to base their investment decisions.

Non-Diversification Risk. Because the Fund is “non-diversified,” it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it was a diversified fund.
