Fund Profiles
BetaShares manages NDQ, Australia's largest technology-focused ETF by assets, tracking the Nasdaq-100 Index which comprises 100 of the biggest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq exchange. Despite occasional misconceptions, NDQ provides unhedged exposure, meaning Australian investors are subject to AUD/USD currency movements alongside the performance of holdings like Apple, Microsoft, and NVIDIA. Tech-focused investors and those seeking high-growth US equity exposure as a satellite allocation will find NDQ a straightforward way to access the world's most prominent technology and innovation companies.
BetaShares NYSE FANG+ ETF tracks the NYSE FANG+ Index, providing highly concentrated exposure to just ten leading global technology companies including Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, and Meta. With so few holdings, the fund carries significant single-stock concentration risk and tends to be substantially more volatile than broader market indices. It appeals to growth-focused investors seeking an aggressive satellite position in mega-cap tech, though its narrow composition makes it unsuitable as a core portfolio holding.
