About this ETF
The MUFG Japan Small Cap Active ETF (MJSC) allocates capital to smaller Japanese enterprises, specifically targeting those distinguished by innovative business models, robust competitive advantages, proficient management teams, and compelling valuations. Its holdings may encompass common and preferred shares, depositary receipts, real estate investment trusts (REITs), initial public offerings (IPOs), and other exchange-traded funds. The fund's stock selection adheres to a thematic methodology, blending quantitative screening techniques with unique supply chain analysis to uncover nascent, rapidly expanding companies poised to benefit from both enduring structural shifts and transient cyclical patterns. This approach aims to exploit the overlooked opportunities prevalent in Japan's less-scrutinized small-capitalization market. While its core focus remains Japan, MJSC has the discretion to invest up to 20% of its assets in non-Japanese firms across both emerging and developed nations. Furthermore, up to a third of the portfolio may be lent out, safeguarded by collateral, to generate supplementary income. All investments undergo continuous oversight, with shares being sold when growth potential wanes or market valuations appear excessive.
