Description

Avantis Global Equity UCITS ETF is an actively managed ETF: it does not track an index — the declared index (MSCI World IMI Index) is a comparison yardstick only. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.22%, plus 0.01% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 684 million euro, was launched on 25 September 2024 and is domiciled in Ireland.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

Investment objective The investment objective of Avantis Global Equity UCITS ETF (the "Fund") is to seek long-term capital appreciation through investment in an actively managed portfolio of equity and equity-related securities issued by large, mid and small capitalisation companies in developed countries. Investment policies The Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing in a global portfolio of equities and equityrelated securities, common shares, convertible stock, preferred shares, rights issues, equity warrants which will not embed derivatives , stock options and closed-ended investment funds including commercial trusts and real estate investment trusts ("REITs") and publicly traded partnerships. The Fund intends to invest up to 100% of its Net Asset Value in equities and equityrelated securities of issuers located in developed countries. The Fund may invest up to 5% of its NAV in REITs which are pooled invest vehicles that invest in income producing real property or real property-related loans or interests listed, traded or dealt in on recognised stock exchanges. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its Net Asset Value in the units/ shares of Eligible Collective Investment Schemes where such investments satisfy the requirements of the Central Bank. In exceptional market or economic conditions, the Fund may temporarily invest up to 100% of its NAV in cash, cash equivalents, and ancillary liquid assets. These assets may include deposits, Investment Grade short-term debt securities, variable rate notes, money market instruments, and convertible bonds from various issuers listed on any regulated market. Convertible bonds, convertible into a company's equity, will only be held due to corporate actions and will be sold as soon as practicable. The Fund will not invest in contingent convertible bonds. Benchmark The Fund is an actively managed exchange traded fund (ETF). The Fund does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index but does reference the MSCI World IMI Index (USD) (the "Benchmark") for comparative purposes only. Further information on the Benchmark can be found at www.msci.com.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Source: Avantis. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.21%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
