U.S. Small Cap Growth Portfolio: ETF Class Shares (DUSG)

The U.S. Small Cap Growth Portfolio ETF Class Shares (DUSG) are an exchange-traded share class of an existing mutual fund portfolio, a structure that allows the same pool of assets to be held through either mutual fund or ETF shares.

The portfolio invests in small-capitalization U.S. companies with growth characteristics. Its name matches a portfolio in the Dimensional Fund Advisors lineup, which uses a systematic, research-based approach to tilt holdings toward smaller and more profitable companies while managing trading costs.
