Singapore is getting its first active ETF benchmarked against the iEdge Singapore Next 50 Index.
The CGS Fullgoal Singapore Next 50 Active ETF (SGX: Q50) is also the first Singapore-focused actively managed equity ETF listed on the SGX, giving investors a new way to invest beyond the STI, banks and large-cap REITs.
In this video, I take a comprehensive first look at the upcoming IPO. We cover how the ETF works, the iEdge Singapore Next 50 Index, the illustrative portfolio and top holdings, the quantitative investment strategy, fees, distributions, backtested performance, risks, and how it compares with the recently launched Amova Singapore Small Mid Cap Equity Fund.
Most importantly, I also share The Dividend Uncle’s Take on whether this ETF would fit into my own dividend portfolio, especially for investors who already own substantial Singapore REIT holdings.
As always, this video is for informational purposes only and not financial advice. Always do your own research and consult a licensed financial adviser before making any investment decisions. I own some of the shares and REITs discussed, but what works for me may not work for you.
