Like us, you might have noticed the iShares FTSE China Large-Cap ETF (ASX: IZZ) and think that now could be a good time to consider taking a closer look. Here’s what ETF investors need to know.
1. What does the IZZ ETF do for investors?
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.
2. Funds under management (FUM)
The iShares IZZ ETF had $121.73 million of money invested when we last pulled the monthly numbers. Given IZZ’s total funds under management (FUM) figure is over $100 million, the ETF has met our minimum criteria for the total amount of money invested, otherwise known as FUM. We draw 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 de-risks the ETF.
3. Don’t forget about the fees & costs
iShares charges investors a yearly management fee of 0.77% for the IZZ ETF. This means that if you invested $2,000 in IZZ for a full year, you could expect to pay management fees of around $15.40.
For context, the average management fee (MER) of all ETFs covered by Best ETFs Australia on our complete list of ASX ETFs is 0.51% or around $10.20 per $2,000 invested. Keep in mind, small changes in fees can make a big difference after 10 or 20 years.
