BSound structure
DiversificationHHI 47882

Concentration is below 1,500 (478), so no single holding dominates.

Sector balanceFinancials 25%100

The largest sector is Financials at 25% — industries are reasonably spread.

1.09% a year is on the high side — about 10.9% over a decade, so it needs a reason to earn that.

Fund size$36M0

Structural simplicityPhysical, 1x100

A plain 1x physical fund holding the shares themselves — no structural drift from how long you hold it.

HHI sums the squared weights. The more it leans on a few names, the higher it goes — and the more the whole ETF moves with them.

How concentrated is it

Concentration (HHI) is low at 478, with the top 10 holdings at just 53.9% of equity weight. No single name can dominate the fund.

Good for damping single-stock risk — and equally, a big winner inside gets diluted.

HHI squares each weight and sums them: 10,000 means one stock is everything, and the more evenly spread the holdings, the closer it falls to zero.

Where the sector weight sits

Sectors run Financials(25%) · Energy(17%) · Health Care(15%), and even the largest is only 25% — no meaningful industry tilt.

This is built to track a market rather than to call a sector.

Weights above sum the individually listed equities and normalize that equity total to 100%.

How much it overlaps others

Even its closest peer, IDVO, overlaps only 31% (8 shared names).

Funds filed under the same label can hold quite different companies, so pairing this one with another may genuinely spread risk.

What it is made of

The fund holds 38 positions in total; this page lists the largest 22 and folds the rest into "Others".

Equities are 67.5% of the fund, the rest swaps and cash — index exposure built synthetically rather than by owning the shares, which adds counterparty risk.

The expense ratio is 1.09% a year, which is not cheap. Fees come out of returns every year you hold, so it is worth checking whether the same index is available for less.
