- First Trust Asia Pacific Ex-Japan AlphaDEX Fund (FPA) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks investment results corresponding generally to the price and yield, before the fund's fees and expenses, of the Nasdaq AlphaDEX Asia Pacific Ex-Japan Index. The fund normally invests at least 90% of its net assets, including investment borrowings, in securities comprising the index, which employs the AlphaDEX stock selection methodology to target stocks from the Nasdaq Asia Pacific Ex-Japan Index that may generate positive alpha relative to traditional capitalization-weighted indices through a quantitative approach incorporating growth and value factors; holdings include common stocks, depositary receipts, REITs, and preferred shares from developed Asia-Pacific markets excluding Japan, such as Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and New Zealand, with top sectors encompassing industrials, technology, real estate, and consumer discretionary. Launched on April 18, 2011 and domiciled in the United States, the fund trades on Nasdaq under the ticker FPA and is managed by a team at First Trust Advisors L.P., headquartered at 120 East Liberty Drive, Suite 400, Wheaton, Illinois 60187. The fund provides exposure to approximately 100 stocks selected and weighted based on fundamental factors, with recent top holdings including SK Square Co., Ltd., Vicinity Centres, China Overseas Land & Investment Limited, Seatrium Ltd., and Alibaba Health Information Technology Limited, representing a portfolio concentration of about 10.71% in the top five; it targets institutional and retail investors seeking regional equity diversification, with assets under management around $23-25 million, a net expense ratio of 0.80%, and quarterly distributions, such as the recent ex-dividend payment on December 13, 2024. In recent developments, First Trust Advisors L.P., the fund's investment adviser, announced distributions for exchange-traded funds including FPA on dates such as September 24, 2025 and March 26, 2025, alongside fee waivers effective January 1, 2026 for certain fixed income funds as part of broader portfolio management adjustments; the firm also reported collective assets under management or supervision reaching approximately $304 billion as of October 31, 2025, reflecting ongoing expansion in unit investment trusts, ETFs, closed-end funds, mutual funds, and separate managed accounts, with no specific acquisitions, partnerships, or product launches directly tied to FPA in the past 1-2 years but continued operational support through routine index-aligned rebalancing and portfolio turnover.
