Our read on IWFG
DRoughly 30 US growth names, no index hugging, measured against the whole Russell 3000. A stock-picker's portfolio in an ETF wrapper, and it carries a stock-picker's price tag.
The Fund’s stated objective is long-term capital appreciation.
Why people hold it
- Genuinely concentrated: around 30 holdings, so each name carries real weight instead of getting diluted across hundreds of positions.
- Fully active with a broad yardstick. It measures itself against the Russell 3000, not a narrow growth index, and states one goal: long-term capital appreciation.
- The portfolio it holds matches the focused US growth mandate its filings describe, which is not a given among active funds.
- Run under NY Life Investments and trading since 2022, so there is a real operating record rather than a fresh launch.
Worth knowing
- At 0.75% a year, it sits above the typical fee in its peer group, where active-leaning large-cap growth is available for far less (JUSA at 0.12%, FELG at 0.18%).
- A smaller, thinly traded fund. Spreads can be wider than the household-name growth ETFs, which matters most on larger orders.
- Built for capital appreciation, not income. This has not been an income payer, so the return story rests on share price.
