- Avantis All Equity Markets Value ETF (AVGV) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund-of-funds that provides global equity exposure by investing primarily in other Avantis ETFs focused on value characteristics across all market capitalizations; its core underlying holdings include Avantis U.S. Large Cap Value ETF (AVLV, approximately 35%), Avantis International Large Cap Value ETF (AVIV, approximately 19%), Avantis U.S. Small Cap Value ETF (AVUV, approximately 17%), Avantis Emerging Markets Value ETF (AVES, approximately 11%), Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF (AVDV, approximately 10%), and Avantis U.S. Mid Cap Value ETF (AVMV, approximately 7%). The ETF targets long-term capital appreciation through factor-based investing in securities exhibiting lower valuations and higher profitability, spanning developed and emerging markets worldwide with geographic weighting emphasizing the U.S., international developed regions, and emerging economies. Launched on June 27, 2023, and listed on NYSE Arca, AVGV is issued by American Century ETF Trust and managed by Avantis Investors, a brand of American Century Investments, which is headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri. The fund maintains a net expense ratio of 0.26% (with a temporary fee waiver through December 31, 2025) and had total net assets of approximately $170 million as of recent data.
In June 2023, Avantis Investors expanded its ETF lineup by launching AVGV alongside three other active fund-of-funds—Avantis All International Markets Equity ETF (AVNM), Avantis All International Markets Value ETF (AVNV), and Avantis Moderate Allocation ETF (AVMA)—to offer investors streamlined, tax-efficient multi-region and multi-asset solutions utilizing existing Avantis underlying funds. No significant acquisitions, partnerships, funding rounds, or major strategic shifts have been reported for AVGV in the last 1-2 years; the fund continues to operate within American Century Investments' broader suite of over 20 ETFs and mutual funds covering equities, fixed income, and real estate, serving institutional and individual investors globally through offices in the U.S., Europe, and Asia-Pacific. AVGV targets investors seeking diversified global value equity exposure without replicating a passive index, with portfolio managers actively adjusting allocations based on economic conditions, valuations, and profitability metrics.
