About DFIC
To achieve the International Core Equity2 ETF’s investment objective, Dimensional Fund Advisors LP (the “Advisor”) implementsan integrated investment approach that combines research, portfolio design, portfolio management, andtrading functions. As further described below, the Portfolio’s design emphasizes long-term driversof expected returns identified by the Advisor’s research, while balancing risk through broad diversificationacross companies, sectors, and countries. The Advisor’s portfolio management and trading processesfurther balance those long-term drivers of expected returns with shorter-term drivers of expected returnsand trading costs.The Portfolio is designed to purchase a broad and diversegroup of equity securities within a market capitalization weighted universe (e.g., the larger the company,the greater the proportion of the universe it represents) of non-U.S. companies associated with developedmarkets that have been authorized for investment by the Advisor’s Investment Committee (the “International Universe”). The Portfolioinvests in companies of all sizes, with meaningfully increased exposure to smaller capitalization, lowerrelative price, and higher profitability companies as compared to their representation in the InternationalUniverse. The Portfolio’s meaningfully increased exposure to smaller capitalization, lower relativeprice, and higher profitability companies may be achieved by decreasing the allocation of the Portfolio’sassets to larger capitalization, higher relative price, or lower profitability companies relative totheir weight in the International Universe. An equity issuer is considered to have a high relative price(i.e., a growth stock) primarily because it has a high price in relation to its book value. An equityissuer is considered to have a low relative price (i.e., a value stock) primarily because it has a lowprice in relation to its book value. In assessing relative price, the Advisor may consider additionalfactors such as price to cash flow or price to earnings ratios. An equity issuer is considered to havehigh profitability because it has high earnings or profits from operations in relation to its book valueor assets. The criteria the Advisor uses for assessing relative price and profitability are subject tochange from time to time.The Portfolio intends to purchase securities of companiesassociated with developed market countries that the Advisor has designated as approved markets. As anon-fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Portfolio will invest at least 80% of its netassets in equity securities. The Advisor determines company size on a country or region-specific basisand based primarily on market capitalization. The Advisor may also increaseor reduce the Portfolio’s exposure to an eligible company, or exclude a company, based on shorter-termconsiderations, such as a company’s price momentum, short-run reversals, and investment characteristics.In assessing a company’s investment characteristics, the Advisor considers ratios such as recentchanges in assets divided by total assets. The criteria the Advisor uses for assessing a company’sinvestment characteristics are subject to change from time to time. In addition, the Advisor seeks toreduce trading costs using a flexible trading approach that looks for opportunities to participate inthe available market liquidity, while managing turnover and explicit transaction costs.ThePortfolio may gain exposure to companies associated with approved markets by purchasing equity securitiesin the form of depositary receipts, which may be listed or traded outside the issuer’s domicilecountry, or by entering into equity swap agreements. The Portfolio also may purchase or sell futurescontracts and options on futures contracts for foreign or U.S. equity securities and indices to increaseor decrease equity market exposure based on actual or expected cash inflows to or outflows from the Portfolio.Because many of the Portfolio’s investments may be denominated in foreign currencies, the Portfoliomay enter into foreign currency exchange transactions, including foreign currency forward contracts,in connection with the settlement of a foreign securities or to transfer cash balances from one currencyto another currency.The Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to generateadditional income.The Portfolio is an actively managed exchange-traded fundand does not seek to replicate the performance of a specific index and may have a higher degree of portfolioturnover than such index funds.
