More Investors Use ETFs to Access Proper Market Exposures

Max ChenApr 02, 2020
2020-04-02

Financial advisors are looking for ways to better utilize and incorporate exchange traded funds into a diversified investment portfolio.

“They’re asking us a lot of questions on how to position portfolios. Given the market environment we’re in, the great bull market we’ve had, they’re really thinking, ‘Do I have the right allocation? What’s that equity-fixed-income allocation look like? How do I use cap-weighted and smart beta in my portfolio to really provide the right investor outcome?’” David Botset, Senior Vice President, Strategy & Product, Charles Schwab Investment Management, said at the Inside ETFs conference.

To help investors achieve their goals, Charles Schwab has offered a line of broad index-based ETFs at dirt-cheap costs. Schwab offers some of the cheapest U.S.-listed ETFs on the market, including the Schwab U.S. Large-Cap ETF (SCHX A) and Schwab U.S. Broad Market ETF (SCHB A), which both come with a 0.03% expense ratio.

Additionally, Schwab offers a suite of “intelligent-” or “smart-“beta index-based ETFs that screen for fundamental measures of adjusted sales, retained operating cash flow, and dividends plus buybacks, including:

  • Schwab Fundamental U.S. All Company ETF (FNDB A-) tries to reflect the performance of the Russell Fundamental U.S. Index, which includes components from the Russell 3000 Index.
  • Schwab Fundamental U.S. Large Company ETF (FNDX A) tries to reflect the performance of the Russell Fundamental U.S. Large Company Index, which includes the top companies that weigh above 87.5% from the Russell 3000 Index.
  • Schwab Fundamental U.S. Small Company ETF (FNDA A) tries to reflect the performance of the Russell Fundamental U.S. Small Company Index, which includes the bottom companies that weigh below 87.5% from the Russell 3000 Index.
  • Schwab Fundamental International Large Company ETF (FNDF B+) tries to reflect the performance of the Russell Fundamental Developed ex-U.S. Large Company Index, which includes companies with weights above 87.5% of the Russell Developed ex-U.S. Index.
  • Schwab Fundamental International Small Company ETF (FNDC A) tries to reflect the performance of the Russell Fundamental Developed ex-U.S. Small Company Index, which includes companies with weights below 87.5% of the Russell Developed ex-U.S. Index.
  • Schwab Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company ETF (FNDE A) tries to reflect the performance of the Russell Fundamental Emerging Markets Large Company Index, which includes companies with weights above 87.5% of the Russell Emerging Markets Index.
