Our read on CDIG

ETF.net Research

In short

DA go-anywhere global stock picker from a boutique shop, launched in 2025 into a cohort ruled by cheap systematic giants. Active, unconstrained, 0.75%, and still writing its first chapter.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks capital appreciation.

Why people hold it

  • No index to hug. The mandate is capital appreciation from stocks anywhere in the world, so the manager can move across regions without a benchmark leash.
  • One ticker for the whole equity map: US and non-US in a single holding instead of bolting together separate regional funds.
  • Plain plumbing. A registered 1940 Act ETF with no structural flags on file, meaning a 1099 at tax time rather than a K-1.

Worth knowing

  • The fee is 0.75%, above the median for active global equity and several times what systematic peers charge, such as GSWO at 0.15% and DFAW at 0.24%.
  • It launched in September 2025, so the track record is thin. There is a prospectus to read, not years of results to weigh.
  • Small and lightly traded, which usually means wider bid/ask spreads. Limit orders and steering clear of the opening and closing minutes are standard practice here.
