- Avantis Emerging Markets Small Cap Equity ETF (AVEE) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diverse group of small-cap companies across emerging market sectors, industry groups, and countries; it emphasizes securities with higher profitability, value characteristics, and smaller market capitalizations to potentially capture higher expected returns based on current market prices and company financials. The fund holds over 2,400 equity securities, including top positions such as SSC Government MM GVMXX, Qatari Rial, Hyosung Heavy Industries Corporation, GFH Financial Group BSC, and Li Ning Company Limited, with a net expense ratio of 0.42% and assets under management approximating $58 million as of late 2025. Launched on November 7, 2023, and sponsored by Avantis Investors—a solution offered by American Century Investments headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri—AVEE trades on the NYSE Arca and targets institutional and retail investors seeking exposure to volatile emerging markets small-cap equities. In recent developments, Avantis Investors, AVEE's sponsor, surpassed $100 billion in assets under management in December 2025, fueled by nearly $27 billion in net new investments through the first 11 months of the year, reflecting strong adoption of its low-cost, active strategies across the U.S., Australia, and Europe. The firm continues expanding its ETF lineup, including the April 2025 launch of a new active credit ETF, alongside prior 2025 growth milestones like crossing $90 billion in AUM. AVEE itself, part of the November 2023 launch cohort with AVMC and AVMV, has delivered year-to-date NAV total returns of approximately 19% as of late 2025 amid its focus on the AMSCI Emerging Markets Small Cap Index benchmark.
