Investment Summary
📎 Investment Objective
The iShares MSCI Intl Value Factor ETF (IVLU) seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of international developed market stocks that exhibit value characteristics.
🎯 Investment Strategy
The ETF employs a passive management (or index-tracking) strategy, attempting to replicate the performance of the MSCI World ex USA Enhanced Value Index. The index selects stocks based on three fundamental variables: price-to-book value, price-to-forward earnings, and enterprise value-to-cash flow from operations.
✨ Key Features
- Provides exposure to a portfolio of international developed market stocks with value characteristics
- Passively tracks the MSCI World ex USA Enhanced Value Index
- Low expense ratio of 0.00%
- Relatively new fund with limited performance history
⚠️ Primary Risks
- Market risk: The value of the ETF's holdings may decline due to general market and economic conditions
- Value investing risk: Value stocks may perform differently from the market as a whole and following a value-oriented investment strategy may not achieve the desired results
- International investing risk: Investing in non-U.S. securities may be subject to additional risks, such as currency fluctuations, political instability, and economic conditions in foreign countries
- Lack of performance history: As a new fund, IVLU has limited track record to evaluate its long-term performance
👤 Best For
IVLU may be suitable for investors seeking exposure to international developed market stocks with a value-oriented investment approach. Due to its limited performance history, the fund may be more appropriate for investors with a longer-term investment horizon and a higher risk tolerance.
