The Magellan Infrastructure Fund (Currency Hedged) (Managed Fund) ETF (ASX:MICH)
The Magellan MICH Fund is an actively-managed portfolio that invests in a select array of international infrastructure companies. The fund typically selects between 20-40 global equities from the infrastructure sector and hedges its exposure against the Australian dollar to manage currency risks.
According to our most recent data, the MICH ETF had $878.86 million of money invested. With MICH’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.

Global X ROBO Global Robotics and Automation ETF (ASX:ROBO)
The ETFS ROBO ETF provides investors with exposure to the global value chain of robotics, automation and artificial intelligence (RAAI) related companies. Some investors consider RAAI-related companies as disruptors to industries across the globe and thus, a ‘thematic’ or ‘megatrend’ to invest in.
With our numbers for July 2022, ROBO’s FUM stood at $213.99 million. Since the ROBO’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 ROBO ETF fee load?
Global X, the ETF issuer, charges a yearly management fee of 0.69% for the ROBO ETF. Meaning, if you invest $2,000 for a full year from now you can expect to pay a management fee of around $13.80.
The management fee is above the average for all ETFs on our list of ASX ETFs, but keep in mind the ETF may be able to justify the higher price tag with superior performance over time.
