What to know about the Schroder Investment Management Australia Limited GROW ETF
The Schroder GROW Fund is a multi-asset class, actively-managed portfolio of global assets. The fund aims to deliver a return of 5% per annum above inflation (before fees), over a rolling 3-year period.
According to our most recent data, the GROW ETF had $63.09 million of money invested. Given its funds under management (also known as FUM or ‘market cap’) is less than $100 million, you should consider if this ETF is still too small and if it is sustainable for the ETF issuer. At Best ETFs we say an ETF with more than $100 million invested is typically more sustainable than one with less than $100 million (at least). However, there are exceptions to this general rule, especially if the ETF issuer/provider is reputable and committed to growing the ETF’s FUM through effective marketing strategies and distribution to financial advisers.

The iShares IZZ ETF – key points
The iShares IZZ ETF provides investors with exposure to the 50 largest and most liquid companies in China which are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
With our numbers for July 2022, IZZ’s FUM stood at $255.4 million. Since the IZZ’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 IZZ ETF fee load?
iShares, the ETF issuer, charges a yearly management fee of 0.77% for the IZZ ETF. Meaning, if you invest $2,000 for a full year from now you can expect to pay a management fee of around $15.40.
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.
