What to know about the BetaShares EX20 ETF
The BetaShares EX20 ETF provides exposure to the largest 180 Australian shares, based on market capitalisation, excluding the top 20.
According to our most recent data, the EX20 ETF had $235.22 million of money invested. With EX20’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 Australian 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 iShares ILB ETF – key points
The iShares ILB ETF provides investors with exposure to the performance of a segment of the Australian bond market comprised of inflation-linked fixed income securities.
With our numbers for July 2022, ILB’s FUM stood at $511.79 million. Since the ILB’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 ILB ETF fee load?
iShares, the ETF issuer, charges a yearly management fee of 0.18% for the ILB ETF. Meaning, if you invest $2,000 for a full year from now you can expect to pay a management fee of around $3.60.
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.
