Our read on DVAL

ETF.net Research

CActive value with a long paper trail: Brandywine Global's quant model hunts US large caps trading cheap against the Russell 1000 Value Index, inside a fund whose live record dates to 2006.

Stated mandate

The actively managed fund seeks exposure to U.S. large-capitalization companies that appear attractively valued relative to the Russell 1000 Value Index and rank highly under the manager’s quantitative model.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Not an index in disguise. Roughly 110 stocks chosen by a quantitative model that ranks names against the Russell 1000 Value Index instead of copying it.
  2. 020.49% a year undercuts the typical actively managed US value ETF in its peer group, so the manager's edge starts from a lower hurdle.
  3. 03A 2006 start date means real money, real markets, not a backtest. Among active US value ETFs, it grades in the upper half of its peer group.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Systematic value at index prices exists: AVLV runs 0.15% and WTV 0.12%. The extra fee here buys an active model, not cheaper beta.
  2. 02Thinly traded and small by ETF standards, which tends to mean wider bid-ask spreads than the household-name value funds.
  3. 03Payouts land annually or semiannually, so this is not built around a steady income drip.
