What GGBL does

The Betashares WealthBuilder Global Geared Complex ETF, with the ticker GGBL, is designed to help investors grow their wealth by investing in a diversified portfolio of global shares. This ETF uses a geared investment strategy, which means it borrows money to invest more than the initial amount, aiming to amplify potential returns. However, this approach also increases the risk, as losses can be magnified if the market declines. With a management fee of 0.35%, GGBL offers a cost-effective way for investors to access a broad range of international companies, providing an opportunity for higher growth, but with a higher level of risk due to the use of gearing.

What types of holdings are inside GGBL?

GGBL primarily invests in a broad selection of global equities, focusing on large-cap companies across various sectors and geographies. The ETF holds shares in diverse industries, including technology, healthcare, and consumer goods, ensuring a well-rounded exposure to global growth opportunities. The use of gearing through derivatives allows GGBL to achieve a leveraged position, amplifying its exposure to the underlying equities. This strategy provides investors with the potential for higher returns, albeit with increased risk, making it suitable for those comfortable with a geared investment approach.

Why you would consider GGBL

GGBL is suitable for growth-oriented investors looking to enhance their portfolio's capital growth potential through leverage. It can fit well within a diversified investment strategy, particularly for those seeking to increase their global equity exposure while managing risk through diversification. For example, it could complement a portfolio that includes Australian equities, fixed income, or alternative assets. GGBL addresses the need for investors to access a geared exposure to global markets without the complexities of direct investments.
