- Matthews Japan Active ETF (JPAN) is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing at least 80% of its net assets in common and preferred stocks of companies located in Japan. The fund employs a high-conviction, unconstrained all-cap growth strategy, targeting Japanese companies positioned to benefit from Asia's economic expansion, including those leveraged to fast-growing consumer demand across Asia, global industry leaders, and entrepreneurial firms offering innovative domestic solutions; its portfolio typically comprises around 49 positions with top holdings such as Sony Group Corp., Tokio Marine Holdings, Inc., Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc., Hitachi, Ltd., and Tokyo Electron, Ltd., benchmarked against the MSCI Japan Index with a gross expense ratio of 0.79%. JPAN trades on the NYSE Arca exchange under ticker JPAN with CUSIP 577-130-594. Launched on September 21, 2023, and managed by Matthews Asia--an independent investment specialist founded in 1991 and headquartered in San Francisco, California--JPAN forms part of Matthews Asia's suite of Asia-focused active ETFs, with the firm overseeing approximately $6.5 billion in assets under management as of June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the fund's net assets stood at $5.6 million, reflecting its focus on sectors including industrials (24.2%), consumer discretionary (17.1%), and information technology (16.5%), with an active share of 59.6% relative to its benchmark; it caters primarily to investors seeking targeted exposure to Japanese equities amid regional growth dynamics. Recent developments include strong performance with a one-year NAV total return of 19.04% as of June 30, 2025, outperforming the MSCI Japan Index's 14.29%, alongside a December 2025 dividend distribution of $1.82715 per share; while JPAN itself has seen no major acquisitions, funding rounds, or strategic shifts, its parent firm Matthews Asia underwent fund rationalizations in early 2025, including the merger of the Asia Dividend Fund into the Emerging Markets Equity Fund effective January 24, 2025, and benchmark changes for peer ETFs such as the India Active ETF in April 2024.
