Our read on each fund

ETF.net Research

DFAWADimensional World Equity ETF

JSTCCAdasina Social Justice All Cap Global ETF

In short

DFAW No data

JSTC Not an off-the-shelf ESG score. Adasina screens global companies against its own social justice criteria (racial, gender, economic, climate), then runs the book actively across every market cap.

Stated mandate

DFAW No data

JSTC The Fund seeks capital appreciation and income. It actively invests in global companies whose business practices align with Adasina’s social-justice criteria, including racial, gender, economic, and climate justice.

Why people hold it

DFAW No data

JSTC The mandate names what it's screening for: racial, gender, economic and climate justice, applied to company business practices rather than compressed into one vendor ESG rating.
Global and all-cap in a single ticker, actively managed rather than tracking a broad world index on autopilot.
Running since 2020 with its own named yardstick, the Adasina Social Justice Index, instead of borrowing a generic global benchmark.

Worth knowing

DFAW No data

JSTC 0.89% a year is real money beside global peers such as GSWO (0.15%) and AVGE (0.25%), and above the typical actively managed global equity fund.
Thinly traded next to the household-name global funds, so spreads and order size carry more weight here.
Distributions land once or twice a year, not monthly.
