How big is the BetaShares RBTZ ETF?
The BetaShares RBTZ ETF had $145.18 million of money invested when we last pulled the monthly numbers. Given RBTZ’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.

BetaShares charges investors a yearly management fee of 0.57% for the RBTZ ETF. This means that if you invested $2,000 in RBTZ for a full year, you could expect to pay management fees of around $11.40.
