Perpetual Asset Management Australia has launched a global active exchange traded managed fund.
The Barrow Hanley Global Share fund would be quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and aimed to provide long-term capital growth through investing in quality global shares.

This was the third active ETF following the launch of two last November; Perpetual Ethical SRI fund and Perpetual Global Innovation Share fund.

“Like Perpetual, the team at Barrow Hanley has a tried and tested approach to value investing in a global context that has stood the test of time through multiple market cycles.”
