In short

BLGR Most multifactor ETFs lean value or dividends. BLGR goes the other way: at least 80% in large US growth companies, picked by a proprietary growth, momentum and value model, at 0.23% net of a waiver through August 31, 2027.

IMCV No data

Stated mandate

BLGR The fund seeks capital growth and is designed to invest at least 80% of its assets in large, domestic growth companies.

IMCV No data

Why people hold it

  • BLGR 0.23% a year, net of a waiver through August 31, 2027 (0.28% before the waiver), which lands below the typical fee in its multifactor category.
  • The mandate is written down, not implied: at least 80% of assets in large domestic growth companies, measured against the Russell 1000 Growth Index.
  • One ticker, three factors. Growth, momentum and value are blended inside a single model rather than stacked from separate single-factor funds.
  • Plain-vanilla plumbing: a 1940 Act equity ETF that distributes quarterly, no K-1 at tax time.

IMCV No data

Worth knowing

  • BLGR Thinly traded for its category, so the bid-ask spread can matter more than the expense ratio on the way in and out.
  • Launched in 2025, so the track record is short, and the stock selection runs on a proprietary model rather than a published rulebook you can read line by line.
  • Cheaper neighbors exist: VONV at 0.06% and ILCV at 0.04%. Both screen for value, though, so they are a different bet, not the same fund for less.
