Our read on NUDM

ETF.net Research

BMost developed-market index funds own the whole market. NUDM runs the same neighborhood (Europe, Japan, Australia, everything ex-US and ex-Canada) through a TIAA-built ESG screen, landing on roughly 160 names instead of thousands.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the TIAA ESG International Developed Markets Equity Index. That index uses listed equities from developed-market countries outside the United States and Canada and applies ESG criteria.

Why people hold it

  1. 01ESG is in the contract, not the brochure: the stated mandate is to track a TIAA ESG index of developed-market stocks outside the US and Canada.
  2. 02A straight index wrapper. No manager discretion and no wandering from the mission: it holds the ESG index it says it holds.
  3. 03Trading since 2017, so it carries a multi-year record through real markets rather than a backtest.
  4. 04Roughly 160 stocks, a short enough list that you can read the holdings and see what the screen kept in.

Worth knowing

  1. 01The screen carries a price: 0.27% a year, against 0.03% at VEA, SPDW and SCHF and 0.04% at IDEV for unscreened developed-market exposure.
  2. 02Thinly traded next to the index giants, so spreads can run wider. Limit orders and mid-session trades matter more with a fund like this.
  3. 03Cutting thousands of developed-market stocks down to about 160 means the mix, and the results, can look different from the plain broad benchmark in either direction.
