Avantis International Small Cap Value 

The Avantis International Small Cap Value ETF (AVDV) strategically allocates capital to a diverse array of small-capitalization companies operating in developed markets outside the United States. Its core objective is to enhance anticipated returns by concentrating on businesses that are identified as having attractive low valuations alongside superior profitability metrics. While offering the benefits typically associated with passive investing, such as broad diversification, minimal portfolio turnover, and clear transparency of its holdings, the fund distinguishes itself by actively seeking to add value through informed investment decisions based on prevailing market prices. It employs highly efficient portfolio management and a disciplined trading process, both engineered to optimize investor returns by mitigating unwarranted risks and minimizing expenses. Ultimately, AVDV is designed for seamless integration into an investor's existing asset allocation framework.
