Our read on THMZ

ETF.net Research

In short

BMost thematic ETFs make you pick one trend and live with it. Lazard's megatrends fund is actively run across several themes at once, holding about 60 established companies worldwide and measuring itself against the global stock market.

Stated mandate

THMZ is the ticker shown for Lazard Equity Megatrends ETF on NASDAQ.

Why people hold it

  • Multi-theme by design: rather than one trend in a wrapper, the managers spread roughly 60 global holdings across several megatrends and let the theme mix evolve, with the MSCI All Country World Index as the yardstick.lazardassetmanagement.comlazardassetmanagement.com 2
  • 0.50% net of a fee waiver (0.60% gross) sits below the median for global thematic funds, and level with AGNG, the aging-population ETF, at 0.50%.
  • The mandate leans on established companies generally above $5 billion in market cap, emerging markets included. Blue-chip megatrends, not micro-cap moonshots.lazardassetmanagement.com
  • Portfolio construction stands in the upper half of its global thematic peer group, and the fund pays distributions quarterly.

Worth knowing

  • No published index sits behind it. Which megatrends make the cut, and which names express them, is the manager's call, so there is nothing external to grade the stock picking against.lazardassetmanagement.com
  • Trading is thin next to the giant index names, so the bid-ask gap can be wider and large orders need more care.
  • It launched in 2025, so the record is short, and index-tracking rivals cost less: WRND charges 0.18% net of a fee waiver.
