Strategy

BEAR.AX was created on 2012-07-06 by BetaShares. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on large cap equity. BEAR.AX seeks to generate returns that are negatively correlated to the returns of the Australian sharemarket. The Fund expects to generate a positive return when the S&P/ASX Accumulation 200 Index falls (and a negative return when the index rises).

BGBL.AX was created on 2023-05-09 by BetaShares. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on total market equity. The investment objective of the Betashares Global Shares ETF is to provide an investment return that aims to track the performance of the Solactive GBS Developed Markets ex Australia Large & Mid Cap Index (the β€œIndex”), before taking into account fees and expenses.
