When our last newsletter hit your inbox, it was a milestone day—the official launch of The Longview Advantage ETF. Now, just a month later, we’re off to a fantastic start. One of the highlights? Ringing the closing bell at Nasdaq. It was more than just a photo op (though we’ve included a great one above)—it was a symbol of what this fund represents: long-term thinking, disciplined investing, and alignment with partners who share our values.

What follows is a brief look at why we chose Nasdaq as our listing partner and how that decision reflects the principles at the core of Hill Investment Group and Longview Research Partners.

Why We Chose Nasdaq: A Commitment to Aligned Values

When we decided to launch The Longview Advantage ETF (EBI), we knew that every choice mattered—down to where we listed the fund. Selecting Nasdaq wasn’t just about visibility or reputation; it was about alignment.

At Hill Investment Group and Longview Research Partners (the parent name of the ETF), our core philosophy is built on evidence, transparency, and a forward-thinking approach. These values aren’t just words—they guide everything we do, from the way we serve clients to the investment principles behind our ETF. When we looked at Nasdaq, we saw an organization that operates with the same commitment to innovation, efficiency, and integrity.

Innovation Meets Evidence-Based Investing

Nasdaq has long been a home for companies that challenge the status quo—firms that look beyond convention and embrace a data-driven, systematic approach to growth. That same mindset fuels The Longview Advantage ETF. Our strategy is built on decades of research and combines the most compelling ideas in the evidence-based community into one fund. It’s an approach that requires discipline, adaptability, and the ability to cut through noise—principles that Nasdaq embodies as a leader in market evolution.

Transparency and Efficiency: A Natural Fit

Investors deserve clarity. The mutual fund industry, as we’ve long observed, often thrives on complexity—hidden fees, opaque strategies, and layers of unnecessary friction. Our ETF was designed to strip that away, delivering a low-cost, rules-based investment vehicle that puts investors first. Nasdaq has been at the forefront of this kind of market efficiency, prioritizing technology, access, and real-time insights to ensure investors have the tools they need to succeed.

The Future of Investing

Choosing Nasdaq was more than a logistical decision—it is a statement. We wanted The Longview Advantage ETF to be listed on an exchange that shares our long-term perspective, one that values research-driven decision-making over speculation. Nasdaq has been home to some of the most innovative firms in history, and we’re proud to be part of that ecosystem.

In my recent interview on Nasdaq’s Just for Funds, I had the chance to talk about why The Longview Advantage ETF exists and how it serves advisors and investors who believe in taking the long view. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the video below.

This is just the beginning of our journey with EBI, and we’re excited about what’s ahead. Thanks for being part of it.

Take the Long View.
