Our read on SSCP

ETF.net Research

In short

DA 2026-vintage active small-cap fund with an unusually wide passport: it can own U.S. and international small caps, as long as the shares list on a U.S. exchange. Stock picking with a growth lean, not index ownership.

Stated mandate

The fund is actively managed and invests primarily in equity securities of U.S. and international small-capitalization companies whose shares are listed on U.S. exchanges.

Why people hold it

  • Active by design: a sub-adviser runs a growth-oriented selection process instead of buying the small-cap index wholesale.
  • The passport is wide. U.S. and international small caps both qualify, provided the shares list on a U.S. exchange, so foreign names arrive without offshore settlement.
  • Plain plumbing: a registered 1940 Act ETF whose mandate centers on equity securities, not swaps or notes.

Worth knowing

  • The fee is 0.79% a year, above the median for active small-cap ETFs. Systematic peers such as AVSC (0.25%) and DFSV (0.30%) charge a fraction of that.
  • It launched in 2026 and starts from a small asset base, so the record is short and trading can be light. Check the spread before placing an order.
  • No declared index sits behind it, so outcomes ride on the sub-adviser's picks rather than a published rules-based recipe.
