ETF.net Research

COPYBTweedy, Browne Insider + Value ETF

FEGEAFirst Eagle Global Equity ETF

In short

COPY Copy the insiders: Tweedy, Browne's quant screens hunt cheap stocks where executives are buying their own shares, or the company is buying back its own. Global, all-cap, actively run, 0.80% net of a waiver through December 31, 2027.

FEGE First Eagle's global value discipline in an ETF wrapper since December 2024, with the "global" written into the rules: at least 40% of assets outside the US, spread across three or more non-US countries.

Stated mandate

COPY The Fund seeks long-term capital growth.

FEGE The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in equities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers.

Why people hold it

  • COPY Two signals stacked in one wrapper: proprietary value and total scores, plus evidence that insiders are buying in the open market or the company is repurchasing stock.tweedyetfs.com
  • Casts a wide net: US, developed international and emerging market stocks across a broad cross-section of market caps, so cheapness anywhere can earn a slot.tweedyetfs.com
  • Actively managed and fully transparent rather than index-shadowing, and the portfolio build is a relative strength in a global value group it sits in the upper half of.tweedyetfs.com
  • Tweedy, Browne has served value investors for over a century; the firm frames the ETF as a tax-efficient route into its actively managed strategies.tweedyetfs.comfilepoint.live
  • FEGE Charges 0.50% a year, below the 0.63% median for its active global value peer group. Modest for a fund run by analysts rather than a screen.
  • Global isn't left to a manager's mood. The prospectus requires at least 80% in equities, at least 40% of assets outside the US, and issuers from three or more non-US countries.sec.gov
  • Active, not index-hugging: MSCI World is the yardstick, not the shopping list, so the book can look very different from the benchmark's mega-cap core.firsteagle.com
  • Already a multi-billion-dollar fund and one of the stronger implementations in a thin field of active global value ETFs.

Worth knowing

  • COPY Fee runs 0.80% net of a waiver through December 31, 2027 (0.89% gross), above the category median. Systematic global value rivals such as AVGV charge 0.26%.
  • Launched in December 2024, so there is far less live history here than with long-running global value funds. The evidence sits in the process, not a long record.
  • Distributions arrive once or twice a year, not monthly, and the stated objective is long-term capital growth rather than income.
  • FEGE Launched in December 2024, so the ETF's own live record is short and risk readings rest on limited history.
  • A value portfolio with a required non-US minimum can move very differently from a US-heavy world index, and currency swings ride along.sec.gov
  • Systematic value costs less: peer AVGV charges 0.28%. The extra fee here buys human judgment on which cheap stocks are worth owning.
