What is RBLD?

The First Trust Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure ETF (the "Fund"), formerly First Trust Global Engineering and Construction ETF, seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Fund's fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure Index (the "Index"). The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in the common stocks and real estate investment trusts ("REITs") that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index. The Index is owned and is developed, maintained and sponsored by VettaFi LLC. As of Aug. 1, the First Trust Global Engineering and Construction ETF (FLM) changed its name to the First Trust Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure ETF and its ticker to RBLD and changed its index from the ISE Global Engineering and Construction Index to the Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure Index.
