This week was pretty thin on exchange-traded fund launches, with just four making their debuts this week. Among them was the [American Century Multisector Floating Income ETF (FUSI)](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1710607/000171060723000025/acetftfusi497k.htm), an actively managed fixed income fund that rolled out on Thursday.

FUSI uses a sector rotation strategy that relies on macroeconomic data, technical analysis and fundamental research. The fund comes with an expense ratio of 0.27% and lists on the NYSE Arca.

There was also one closure during the week, with the [**Generation Z ETF (ZGEN)**](https://www.etf.com/zgen) ceasing to trade after the close of business on Friday. The actively managed ETF launched in December 2021 but failed to gather assets.

## **Other Changes** 

There were a large number of material changes to existing ETFs, including 2-for-1 forward share splits on six Vanguard ETFs that became effective on Tuesday. The affected funds are as follows:

- [**Vanguard S&amp;P Mid-Cap 400 ETF (IVOO)**](https://www.etf.com/ivoo)
- [**Vanguard S&amp;P Mid-Cap 400 Value ETF (IVOV)**](https://www.etf.com/ivov)
