In short

GLAM No data

WRND Most innovation funds sell you a story. WRND buys receipts: roughly 200 companies worldwide picked on what they actually spend on R&D and whether that spending earns a return, at a fee well under the thematic norm.

Stated mandate

GLAM No data

WRND The Fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the IQ Global Equity R&D Leaders Index. Its passive strategy targets innovative companies worldwide based on high research and development spending.

Why people hold it

GLAM No data

WRND 0.18% a year against a 0.56% median for its global thematic peers. Innovation exposure without the boutique markup.newyorklifeinvestments.com
Selection leans on the income statement: R&D intensity paired with return on invested capital, favoring firms that turn research budgets into results.newyorklifeinvestments.com
Roughly 200 names from a global universe, one of three R&D-screened funds New York Life launched in 2022 rather than a one-off experiment.businesswire.com

Worth knowing

GLAM No data

WRND Small and lightly traded, so bid/ask spreads tend to run wider than on mainstream global index funds.
Weighting by R&D dollars, with a cap on any single position, tilts the book toward the world's largest research spenders.businesswire.com etfstrategy.com
Distributions arrive quarterly, but income isn't the mandate; the index screens on research spending, not payouts.
