ITEK questions answered
Written from the latest data on this page. General information only, not financial advice.
How diversified is iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF?
iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF holds 1 securities, and its ten largest positions make up 100.0% of the fund, more concentrated than the 48.5% typical of Global equity funds. That makes it fairly concentrated.
Its country exposure is almost entirely United States (100.0%), based on holdings as at 2 Sept 2026.
Which ETFs does ITEK double up with most?
No other ASX fund shares more than 10% of its holdings with ITEK, but its returns move most closely with Betashares Wealth Builder Nasdaq 100 Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (GNDQ) (correlation 0.75) and Global X Artificial Intelligence ETF (GXAI) (correlation 0.73). A correlation near 1 means the two funds tend to rise and fall together, so holding both adds little diversification.
How is iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF managed – active or passive?
iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF is passively managed: it follows an index and holds what that index holds, rather than relying on a manager's stock picks.
Among Global equity funds, active funds charge a median 0.99% a year and index funds 0.54%.
What will I pay in fees for ITEK?
ITEK charges a management fee of 0.30% a year, about $30 for every $10,000 invested. That is cheaper than 66% of the 471 ASX ETFs we track, where the median fee is 0.44%. Among Global equity funds, the median is 0.62%.
Lower-cost funds with a similar focus include Vanguard Global Technology Index ETF (VTEK) at 0.23%, ETFS US Technology ETF (WWWW) at 0.29% and Vanguard Global Technology Index (Hedged) ETF (VTKH) at 0.26%.
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 0.18% for ITEK.
Does iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF follow a theme?
Yes. iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF focuses on technology. Thematic funds are narrower than the broad market, so they can rise or fall much more than it does.
Other ASX funds with a technology focus include Betashares NASDAQ 100 ETF (NDQ), Global X FANG+ ETF (FANG), Betashares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASIA) and Betashares NASDAQ 100 ETF - Currency Hedged ETF (HNDQ).
What is under the hood of ITEK?
As at 2 Sept 2026, ITEK's largest holding is Ishares Nasdaq Top 30 Stocks Cl1 (100.0%).
It follows an index; the issuer's PDS sets out how that index chooses and weights its holdings. Its top 10 weighting of 100.0% compares with 48.5% for Global equity funds.
How well has iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF performed?
Based on its category, iShares Future Tech Innovators ETF aims to grow your capital in line with the index it tracks.
To 23 Oct 2026, with distributions reinvested, it returned 8.0% over 1 year (median 3.8%; ranked 5 of 30) and 15.5% a year over 3 years (median 13.7% a year; ranked 8 of 23). The medians and rankings compare it with Global equity funds. Since listing in 2022 it has returned 9.7% 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 ITEK; 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 0.30% a year, and a much bigger gap is a warning sign.
Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
