Betashares Strong Australian Dollar Complex ETF

AUDSBetasharesLast updated: Dec 25

What AUDS does

The Betashares Strong Australian Dollar Complex ETF, with the ticker AUDS, is designed for investors who want to benefit from a rising Australian dollar. This ETF uses a strategy that aims to amplify the returns when the Australian dollar strengthens against a basket of global currencies. It achieves this by using financial instruments that increase in value as the Australian dollar appreciates. This makes AUDS suitable for those who believe the Australian dollar will rise and are comfortable with the higher risks associated with leveraged investments. The management fee for this ETF is 1.38%, which covers the cost of managing and operating the fund.

What types of holdings are inside AUDS?

The AUDS ETF primarily invests in currency holdings that offer exposure to the Australian dollar. This includes a variety of foreign currencies and instruments designed to benefit from the appreciation of the AUD against those currencies. Unlike typical equity or bond ETFs, AUDS focuses solely on currency exposure, meaning it does not hold stocks or bonds but rather engages with currency markets. This makes it an ideal choice for investors looking to directly manage currency risk or diversify their investment strategies through currency fluctuations.

Why you would consider AUDS

The AUDS ETF is suitable for investors who want to hedge against currency risk or who anticipate an appreciation of the Australian dollar. It can fit into a diversified portfolio by serving as a strategic hedge in times of currency volatility, complementing equity or bond investments. For example, investors with significant offshore investments may use AUDS to mitigate potential losses from currency depreciation. To explore how AUDS fits your financial situation and goals, consider seeking personalised advice through Rask Core.
