In this article, we’ll try to explain why the ETF Securities FANG+ ETF (ASX: FANG) and Vaneck Australian Bank ETF (ASX: MVB) are two ASX ETFs worth taking a look at in FY21.
Some things you should know about the FANG ETF
The ETFS FANG ETF provides investors with exposure to the performance of the 10 most highly-traded next generation technology and tech-enabled companies listed on US stock markets. FANG adopts an equal weight strategy, meaning that it weights the shares within the portfolio equally – this differs from the more commonly used method of weighting by market capitalisation.
According to our most recent data, the FANG ETF had $263.4 million of money invested. With FANG’s total funds under management (FUM) figure over $100 million, the ETF meets our team’s minimum investment criteria for FUM levels. As a general rule, our team draws the line at $100 million for ETFs in the International shares sector because we believe that, relative to smaller ETFs, achieving this amount of FUM lowers the chance that the ETF issuer will close the ETF.

The MVB ETF – a quick look for savvy investors
The VanEck MVB ETF provides focused exposure to Australia’s largest industry, the banking sector. This is a low-cost way to invest in the Australian banking industry through a single fund.
With our numbers for December 2021, MVB’s FUM stood at $193.18 million. Since the MVB’s FUM is over $100 million, our investing team would say the ETF has met our minimum criteria for the total amount invested, otherwise known as FUM. A very sustainable ETF in the Index sector should be able to scale well and become profitable for the ETF issuer.
A look at the MVB ETF fee load?
Vaneck, the ETF issuer, charges a yearly management fee of 0.0028 for the MVB ETF. Meaning, if you invest $2,000 for a full year from now you can expect to pay a management fee of around $5.60.
This management fee is below the average for all ETFs on our Best ETFs Australia list of ETFs. However, you might still be able to find a cheaper ETF for less.
