GSWOAGoldman Sachs ActiveBeta World Equity ETF

UIVMCVictoryShares International Value Momentum ETF

In short

GSWO Four factor tilts (value, momentum, quality, low volatility) on developed markets outside the US, for 15 basis points. Goldman's ActiveBeta rules at a price closer to an index fund than an active one.

UIVM Two screens that rarely agree, value and momentum, pointed at developed markets outside the US. Victory has run this rules-based blend since 2017, holding roughly 190 names instead of picking a side.

Stated mandate

GSWO The fund is an ActiveBeta World Equity ETF designed to track an ActiveBeta Index and provide exposure to value, momentum, quality, and low-volatility characteristics.

UIVM The fund seeks international equity exposure through a rules-based index emphasizing securities with higher value and momentum characteristics within the MSCI World ex USA universe.

Why people hold it

  • GSWO 0.15% a year against a 0.69% median for its global active-equity peers, and cheaper than fellow top-graded names DFAW (0.24%) and AVGE (0.25%).
  • Value, momentum, quality and low volatility come from one published ActiveBeta index methodology, not a manager's discretionary call.gsam.com
  • Stands among the strongest implementations in its global equity peer group: a multi-billion-dollar fund in the standard 1940 Act ETF wrapper that pays quarterly.
  • UIVM Buys the cheap and the strong at once: the index ranks developed ex-US stocks on both value and momentum, so neither screen runs the portfolio alone.
  • Roughly 190 stocks drawn from the MSCI World ex USA universe, spread across developed markets outside the United States.
  • Live since 2017 with a real asset base behind it, not a launch-week experiment fishing for its first shareholders.

Worth knowing

  • GSWO Despite the "World" name, the reference index is MSCI World ex USA, so US stocks sit outside the mandate.
  • Launched in 2022, so the live record is short, and factor blends can trail plain cap-weighted benchmarks for long stretches.
  • Four factors in one basket can pull against each other; the net tilt is milder than a single-factor fund.
  • UIVM The 0.39% fee sits near the middle of the international multifactor pack, and the cheapest rivals undercut it hard: INTF at 0.16%, FDEV at 0.18%, GSIE at 0.25%.
  • Thinly traded for its category, so spreads and limit orders matter more here than with the group's giants.
  • Payouts land on an irregular schedule rather than a fixed quarterly rhythm, which complicates income planning.
