Our read on RGEF
BThe Rockefeller name in ticker form. Active global stock picking with a mandate that stretches from developed markets through emerging and frontier, priced at 0.55% a year, under what most active global funds charge.
The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital through active management of a global equity portfolio. At least 80% of net assets are invested in global equity securities.
Why people hold it
- 0.55% a year for hands-on global management, below the typical fee among active global peers. Human stock picking usually costs more than this.
- The mandate reaches past the usual developed-market roster into emerging and frontier names, with at least 80% of net assets in global equity securities.
- Sits in the upper half of its active global equity peer group, a respectable footing for a fund that only opened its doors in 2024. Pays quarterly.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the household names of the category. Limit orders and avoiding the opening bell matter more with a fund like this.
- Rules-based global rivals cost a fraction: GSWO charges 0.15% and DFAW 0.24%. Here you are paying for Rockefeller's judgment rather than an index.
- Launched in late 2024, so the track record is short and the strategy has not yet been through a full market cycle in this wrapper.
