Barrow Hanley Global Share Active ETF (ASX:GLOB) provides actively managed global Equity exposure through a value oriented Investment process. The manager uses fundamental company research to identify businesses trading below its estimate of intrinsic value. At the time of writing on 6 November 2026, GLOB was trading at AUD 4.66, down 1.47% during the session. The fund’s exposure depends on selected company opportunities rather than full replication of its global equity reference benchmark.

Fundamental research defines the value approach

The investment process seeks companies where the manager can identify reasons for a gap between Market Price and estimated intrinsic value. It focuses on circumstances the manager believes are temporary and on an identifiable route towards fair value. These assessments form part of the selection framework.

Intrinsic value is an estimate rather than a directly observable transaction price. It depends on assumptions about a company’s operations, Earnings and financial position. A Business can develop differently from those assumptions, and the expected improvement may take longer than anticipated. The manager’s assessment therefore remains subject to both company specific and wider market uncertainty.

Global exposure through active company decisions

The listed reference benchmark is the MSCI World Net Return Index in AUD. A benchmark provides context for a global equity mandate, while the manager’s investment process determines the actual portfolio. Active company selection can produce sector and country allocations that differ from the broader market.

The fund aims to provide long term Capital growth through global shares. That objective describes the purpose of the strategy and does not establish an assured outcome. Overseas businesses can operate across several economies, so a listing market is only one part of the exposure. Their earnings can reflect demand, financing and currency conditions in multiple jurisdictions.

Fund structure costs and distribution considerations

GLOB is an ASX quoted unit class in the Barrow Hanley Global Share Fund. The ETF structure provides access to the underlying investment strategy through exchange traded units. A unit price represents a market transaction and can differ from the portfolio’s net asset value during trading.

Value selection leaves investors exposed to the possibility that an apparently inexpensive business faces persistent commercial difficulties. A company can also remain below estimated Fair Value despite operational progress. Global equity prices, currency movements and manager implementation can all influence the fund. Distributions should be considered separately from the manager’s estimates of company value.

Management fees and costs were listed at 0.98%. Fund size was AUD 594.13 million. A distribution of AUD 0.680 per unit had an ex-distribution date of 1 July 2026, a Record Date of 2 July 2026 and a payment date of 21 July 2026. Distribution amounts can change and do not represent a fixed payment commitment.

Key Insights

GLOB’s defining exposure comes from global company selection using a fundamental value process. Its benchmark supplies context, while the manager’s judgments about temporary business issues and estimated Intrinsic Value shape the actual investments.
