If you would rather have a manager choose the investments, active options such as Schroder Real Return Active ETF (GROW) at 0.69% cost more.
The fee is taken from the fund's assets and is already reflected in its returns. You'll also pay brokerage when you buy or sell, and the bid-ask spread, which has averaged 0.20% for DZZF.
Does Betashares Ethical High Growth ETF follow a theme?
No. Betashares Ethical High Growth ETF is a broad multi-asset fund: it aims to cover a wide slice of its market (Multi-region) rather than one theme or sector.
It also applies environmental, social and governance (ESG) screens, excluding companies that fail the issuer's ethical criteria.
What is under the hood of DZZF?
As at 2 Sept 2026, DZZF's 6 largest holdings are Betashares Global Sustainabili (38.9%), Betashares Australian Sustaina (34.6%), Betashares Global Sustainabili (17.4%), Betashares Ethical Australian (5.4%), Betashares Sustainability Lead (3.6%) and Aud - Australia Dollar (0.2%). Together they make up 100.0% of the fund. Some holdings are other ETFs, which we look through to their own holdings when measuring exposure and overlap.
It follows an index; the issuer's PDS sets out how that index chooses and weights its holdings.
How well has Betashares Ethical High Growth ETF performed?
Based on its category, Betashares Ethical High Growth ETF aims to grow your capital in line with the index it tracks.
To 23 Oct 2026, with distributions reinvested, it returned −0.3% over 1 year (median 3.7%; ranked 11 of 13), 11.4% a year over 3 years (median 10.4% a year; ranked 5 of 11) and 6.1% a year over 5 years (median 5.0% a year; ranked 4 of 9). The medians and rankings compare it with multi-asset funds. Since listing in 2019 it has returned 7.0% a year.
Tracking difference is the gap between a fund's return and its index's return. We don't hold index returns, so we can't measure it for DZZF; the issuer reports it in the monthly fact sheet. As a guide, a well-run index fund trails its index by about its fee, here 0.39% a year, and a much bigger gap is a warning sign.
