Our read on KBWB
BBanks, and nothing but. KBWB has tracked the KBW Nasdaq Bank Index since 2011, packing roughly two dozen US bank stocks into one ticker with no insurers or asset managers diluting the theme.
The Fund seeks to track the KBW Nasdaq Bank Index and normally invests at least 90% of its total assets in securities represented by that index.
Why people hold it
- Undiluted US bank exposure: it tracks the KBW Nasdaq Bank Index and normally keeps at least 90% of assets in that index's securities.
- A multi-billion-dollar fund that trades actively, so entering and exiting is usually straightforward even on noisy days for the sector.
- 0.35% expense ratio, the going rate in bank funds and the same sticker as SPDR rivals KBE and KRE.
- Live since 2011 and one of the stronger builds in its bank-fund peer group, with a mandate that has stayed put.
Worth knowing
- Around 26 holdings in a single industry. When banks wobble, there is nothing else in the basket to absorb it.
- Bank shares live and die by rates, credit conditions and regulation, which makes for a bumpier ride than a broad-market fund.
- Distributions land quarterly, not monthly, and the amount moves with what the underlying banks choose to pay.
