Our read on DXIV
CDimensional's developed-markets-ex-US sleeve, built wide: roughly 2,700 stocks tilted toward cheaper, more profitable companies. The breadth is the point; the price tag runs above the multifactor norm.
The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
Why people hold it
- Owns roughly 2,700 developed-market stocks outside the US, so no single name, sector or country carries the portfolio.
- The tilt is stated up front, not buried: the fund leans toward value and profitability rather than simply mirroring a market-cap ladder.
- Portfolio construction is the strongest part of the package in our review, with diversification that stacks up well against international multifactor peers.
- Pays on a quarterly schedule.
Worth knowing
- At 0.53% a year it costs more than the typical international multifactor fund, and well above cheaper rivals like INTF (0.16%) and FDEV (0.18%).
- Thinly traded, so trading costs can bite more than in the category's household names.
- A 2024 launch: the record is short, and there is less history to judge how the tilt behaves through a full cycle.
