YANK questions answered
Written from the latest data on this page. General information only, not financial advice.
How diversified is Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF?
The issuer of Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF doesn't publish its holdings in a form we can read, so we can't measure how diversified it is. It is classed as currency with a Global focus; the product disclosure statement (PDS) and the issuer's fact sheet list what it owns.
Which ETFs does YANK double up with most?
No other ASX fund shares more than 10% of its holdings with YANK, and no fund's returns track it closely, so it offers a fairly distinct exposure.
How is Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF managed – active or passive?
Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF is passively managed: it follows an index and holds what that index holds, rather than relying on a manager's stock picks.
What will I pay in fees for YANK?
YANK charges a management fee of 1.38% a year, about $138 for every $10,000 invested. Only 1% of the 471 ASX ETFs we track charge more, and the median fee is 0.44%. Among currency funds, the median is 0.91%.

No. Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF gives straightforward exposure to a foreign currency's exchange rate rather than following a theme.
What is under the hood of YANK?
The issuer doesn't publish YANK's holdings in a form we can read. Its website and fact sheet list the full portfolio.
It follows an index; the issuer's PDS sets out how that index chooses and weights its holdings.
How well has Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF performed?
Based on its category, Betashares Strong Us Dollar Complex ETF aims to give exposure to a foreign currency's exchange rate.
To 23 Oct 2026, with distributions reinvested, it returned −16.4% over 1 year, −5.1% a year over 3 years and 5.1% a year over 5 years. The medians and rankings compare it with currency funds. Since listing in 2017 it has returned 0.7% 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 YANK; 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 1.38% a year, and a much bigger gap is a warning sign.
