Our read on ESSC

ETF.net Research

BEventide takes its values-based screen down the market cap ladder: an active, long-only US small-cap portfolio measured against the Bloomberg U.S. 2000, at 0.49%. Launched in 2025, so the screen is the pitch, not the history.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by primarily investing in U.S. small-cap companies that Eventide identifies as creating value for stakeholders under its values-based screening criteria. It is actively managed using a long-only approach.

Why people hold it

  1. 01The screen is the point. An active, long-only manager buying US small caps it judges to be creating value for stakeholders, not an index fund with a label bolted on.
  2. 020.49% a year for hands-on small-cap stock picking, a shade under the middle of its actively managed small-cap peer group.
  3. 03Four signals in the mix (growth, momentum, quality, value) rather than a single style bet, with the Bloomberg U.S. 2000 Total Return Index as the yardstick.

Worth knowing

  1. 01Opened in late September 2025, so there is very little performance or risk history behind it yet.
  2. 02Still a small, lightly traded fund, which can mean wider gaps between bid and ask than the household names in the small-cap aisle.
  3. 03At 0.49% it runs about double systematic small-cap peers such as AVUV and AVSC at 0.25%, so the screen has to carry that gap.
