- Cambria Endowment Style ETF (ENDW) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks income and capital appreciation through a diversified global investment strategy inspired by endowment-style approaches, targeting notional exposure of 130%-150% of total assets via a dynamic mix of U.S.-listed exchange-traded funds (ETFs), exchange-traded products, individual equities, and exchange-traded futures contracts. The fund provides exposure to major global asset classes including equities (with over 50% notional allocation typically), fixed income, real assets such as real estate and commodities, and alternatives like hedge strategies (e.g., global macro, long-short, managed futures, relative strength); it employs quantitative screens for undervalued securities based on metrics like price-to-earnings ratios, alongside momentum and trend-following strategies across U.S., foreign developed, and emerging markets, while using futures for leverage on U.S. Treasury instruments and other assets. It may also invest in options, swaps, cash equivalents, and money market funds to achieve its objectives or manage liquidity.
Launched on April 9, 2025, and listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, ENDW debuted with $98 million in seed capital through a tax-efficient Section 351 exchange structure, enabling investors to contribute appreciated securities without immediate tax recognition; this marked Cambria's second such ETF following the Cambria Tax Aware ETF (TAX), in partnership with ETF Architect. Cambria Investment Management, L.P., founded in 2006 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, serves as sub-adviser under investment adviser Empowered Funds, LLC dba EA Advisers, with portfolio managers Mebane T. Faber (Chief Investment Officer) and Jonathan Keetz (Chief Operating Officer); the fund operates within Cambria's lineup of 18 actively managed ETFs totaling approximately $2.6 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2025. Recent expansions include the September 2025 launch of Cambria Global EW ETF (GEW) as the third 351 exchange ETF and the December 18, 2025 announcement of Cambria US EW ETF (USEW) as the fourth, reflecting Cambria's ongoing strategy to deliver innovative, tax-optimized endowment-inspired solutions to retail and institutional investors seeking aggressive risk profiles independent of broader market directions. As of late 2025, ENDW maintains approximately 166-170 holdings, $122 million in assets under management, a total expense ratio of 0.29%-0.59% (including acquired fund fees), and quarterly dividend distributions.
