Pimco Looks To Replicate BOND's Success
Pimco filed for three actively managed ETFs that will seek to follow the model established by its Pimco Total Return ETF (NYSE Arca: BOND).

The new filings also outline ETFs that will be very similar to existing Pimco mutual funds; those funds to be replicated include:

• Pimco Real Return Fund (PRTNX), which has $23.24 billion in assets
• Pimco Low-Duration Fund (PTLAX), which has $21.28 billion in assets
• Pimco Diversified Income Fund (PDVAX), which has $5.63 billion in assets

The filing did not include tickers or expense ratios for the planned ETFs.
