Our read on AKRE

ETF.net Research

In short

DThe ETF successor to Akre Capital's 2009 focus fund: a deliberately concentrated, non-diversified book of businesses meant to be held for years. Multi-billion-dollar scale, and a mutual-fund-era fee of 0.98%.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Why people hold it

  • The strategy has a paper trail. This is the ETF successor to a mutual fund that began operating in 2009, so the approach long predates the wrapper.akrecapital.com
  • Non-diversified on purpose: a focused portfolio, so each holding actually moves the needle instead of being diluted across hundreds of names.akrecapital.com
  • One job, stated plainly in the filings: long-term capital appreciation, mostly US names with room for international ones.sec.gov
  • Among the easier active funds in its peer group to get in and out of, with a multi-billion-dollar asset base behind it.

Worth knowing

  • 0.98% is a mutual-fund-era price tag, well above what most active large-cap growth ETFs charge. Rivals like JUSA and FELG cover similar ground for a fraction of it.sec.gov
  • Concentration cuts both ways. In a non-diversified book, a single-name stumble lands harder than it would in a broad index.akrecapital.com
  • Built for capital appreciation, not income. There is no regular distribution schedule to plan around here.
