Our read on UEVM
CValue and momentum usually pull in opposite directions. UEVM runs both at once, tracking an MSCI blend index that tilts a portfolio of emerging-market stocks toward the cheap names and the ones already working.
The Fund seeks to track the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Select Value Momentum Blend Index before fees and expenses. Its strategy targets global emerging-market equities with greater exposure to value and momentum characteristics.
Why people hold it
- Two factors, one ticker: the index leans emerging-market equities toward both value and momentum characteristics, so you aren't picking a side between cheap stocks and stocks with wind behind them.
- Roughly 200 holdings spread across emerging markets, so no single company or story carries the fund. The portfolio construction is a relative strength here.
- Rules-based and index-tracking since its 2017 launch. The factor tilts come from MSCI's published methodology, not a manager's gut call, and it has traded through several full emerging-market cycles.
Worth knowing
- At 0.53% a year, it costs more than the typical multifactor emerging-market fund. EMGF (0.26%) and AVES (0.36%) run similar factor mandates for meaningfully less.
- Thinly traded compared with its peer group, which tends to mean wider bid-ask spreads and more slippage on larger or hurried orders.
- Distributions land on an irregular schedule rather than a fixed quarterly or monthly rhythm, so the income timing is unpredictable.
