Dimensional International Core Equity Market ETF (DFAI)

international-equity factor-based profitability-tilt dimensional

International equity exposure receives the Dimensional treatment through systematic tilts toward smaller, more profitable companies across developed and emerging markets. This fund applies rigorous academic insights to global stock selection, overweighting firms with robust profitability metrics and reasonable valuations while maintaining broad geographic diversification. The approach offers investors a research-driven alternative to conventional international indices, potentially capturing higher expected returns through exposure to well-documented factor premiums in markets from Tokyo to London to São Paulo.
