Opportunities and Structural Constraints

UIVM.O’s 0.35% expense ratio sits above peers like ANGL.O and AGG.P but aligns with leveraged counterparts such as AGGS.P. Its $38M in assets trails AGG.P’s $138B, limiting liquidity depth. That said, the fund’s leverage ratio of 1.0x amplifies both gains and losses in volatile markets. Recent outflows highlight sensitivity to near-term trading dynamics, contrasting with broader long-term demand seen in larger peers. At the end of the day, UIVM.O balances niche factor exposure against structural costs and liquidity practicalities.
