Are the FOOD and IOO ETFs worth watching in Sep?

It’s time to run a ruler over BetaShares Global Agriculture ETF – Currency Hedged ETF (ASX: FOOD) and iShares S&P Global 100 ETF (ASX: IOO). The ETFs invest across the International shares sector.

The BetaShares Global Agriculture ETF – Currency Hedged ETF (ASX:FOOD)

The BetaShares FOOD ETF provides investors with exposure to the performance of the largest agricultural companies in the world (excluding Australia), hedged into Australian dollars.

According to our most recent data, the FOOD ETF had $142.89 million of money invested. With FOOD’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.

iShares S&P Global 100 ETF (ASX:IOO)

The iShares IOO ETF provides investors with exposure to 100 leading, multi-national companies across global share markets. This is a low-cost way to access a variety of global companies through a single fund.

With our numbers for July 2022, IOO’s FUM stood at $2525.04 million. Since the IOO’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 IOO ETF fee load?

iShares, the ETF issuer, charges a yearly management fee of 0.4% for the IOO ETF. Meaning, if you invest $2,000 for a full year from now you can expect to pay a management fee of around $8.00.

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.
