Analyst Report

This actively-managed ETF offers exposure to global equity markets, including both U.S. and stocks listed in developed and emerging markets. AADR doesn’t seek to replicate a specific benchmark, instead relying on a fund manager to identify the most promising global equity securities. As such, AADR may be appealing to investors who believe the portfolio manager is capable of consistently generating sufficient alpha to at lease offset the hefty expense ratio (though it should be noted that AADR is cheaper than many comparable mutual funds). This ETF can serve as one stop exposure for global equity exposure, though the significant concentration in a relatively small number of holdings may not make that such a wise move. Low cost index-based alternatives include ACWI or VT.
