Our read on RODM
AMost international factor funds pick cheap, quality and momentum stocks and let the country weights land where they may. RODM's index does the factor work inside risk limits built to de-concentrate country, currency and single-company exposure.
Seeks, before fees and expenses, to track the total return of the Hartford Risk-Optimized Multifactor Developed Markets (ex-US) Index, which covers companies in major developed markets outside the United States.
Why people hold it
- The index scores developed-market companies on value, momentum and quality, then selects the highest-scoring names within its risk parameters rather than at any price.hartfordfunds.com
- A 0.29% expense ratio sits below the typical international multifactor fund, though INTF (0.16%) and FDEV (0.18%) charge less.
- Live since 2015, a multi-billion-dollar fund holding roughly 300 stocks across Europe, Canada and the Pacific: an established vehicle, not a recent launch.hartfordfunds.com
- One of the stronger implementations in the international multifactor group, with the risk-control machinery its clearest differentiator.
Worth knowing
- De-concentration by design: country and company weights can look very different from a cap-weighted developed-markets benchmark, so returns will diverge from it.hartfordfunds.com
- Cash comes back annually or semiannually, not monthly or quarterly.
- Trading volume is moderate rather than heavy, so spreads can widen when the underlying overseas markets are closed.
