- LSV Global Managed Volatility Fund (LVAFX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in equity securities of companies located throughout the world, with a focus on quantitative value-oriented strategies; it applies a proprietary quantitative model to select undervalued stocks from a universe of primarily large- and mid-cap U.S., developed market non-U.S., and emerging market non-U.S. listed equities, targeting those with low price-to-earnings ratios, low price-to-cash flow, high dividend yields relative to the MSCI ACWI Index benchmark, and lower expected volatility; the portfolio maintains a minimum of 75 holdings, typically with market caps of $100 million or greater, and features investor share class LVAFX (net expense ratio of 1.00%) alongside institutional share class LSVFX (net expense ratio of 0.75%). Managed by LSV Asset Management, a quantitative value equity firm founded in 1994 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, the fund was launched on June 25, 2014, and operates within the global large-stock value category, serving investors through diversified, risk-controlled portfolios with approximately 25% annual turnover; it provides exposure across U.S. stocks (around 56%), non-U.S. stocks (around 43%), and minimal cash, targeting institutional and retail investors seeking managed volatility in international equities. In recent developments, LSV Asset Management, the fund's adviser, launched the LSV Disciplined Value ETF (LSVD) in December 2024, expanding its active value equity offerings with a focus on companies generally over $1 billion in market cap and a net expense ratio of 0.40%; the firm also welcomed Ralph S.J. Koijen, Ph.D., as a full-time investment team member in October 2025 after his prior role as an academic advisor, enhancing its research capabilities in machine learning applications; additionally, LSV maintains sub-advisory relationships, including with SEI Investments for portions of related global managed volatility strategies, amid managing over $102 billion in assets as of September 30, 2025.
