ETF Express: “Fast-Growing Dimensional Keeps ETF Launches Client-Focused”
In an interview with ETF Express, Dimensional Deputy Head of Portfolio Management Joel Schneider explained the firm’s strategy-first approach, which offers investors access to the same research-driven investment philosophy across different vehicle types, including ETFs.
Dimensional entered the ETF space in 2020 and has launched more than 40 US-domiciled Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”) across US, international, and emerging markets. Today, Dimensional manages approximately $200 billion in ETF assets.
The firm continues to expand its ETF lineup, focusing on meeting client needs without compromising on investment strategy. “We offer solutions that people can use to build long-term asset allocations, not funds purely based on recent trends,” Schneider said.
In the article, Schneider also discussed the staying power of Dimensional funds, the firm’s application for exemptive relief to offer ETF share classes in the US.
