VanEck has completed its TruSector ETF lineup with the launch of four new sector-focused ETFs, expanding the actively managed suite to cover all 11 Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) sectors.
The new funds—the VanEck Energy TruSector ETF (NASDAQ:TRUN), VanEck Utilities TruSector ETF (NASDAQ:TRUU), VanEck Real Estate TruSector ETF (NASDAQ:TRUR) and VanEck Materials TruSector ETF (NASDAQ:TRUM)—are designed to provide market-cap sector exposure that more closely reflects widely followed benchmarks while addressing structural limitations found in many traditional sector ETFs.
Key Features of the New TruSector ETFs
- Full sector coverage: The TruSector lineup now spans all 11 GICS sectors, offering investors complete U.S. equity sector exposure.
- Active management: Each ETF employs a hybrid strategy combining individual equities with targeted ETFs.
- Objective: Maintain uncapped exposure to a sector’s largest and most influential companies while complying with diversification rules.
- Portfolio benefits: Designed to deliver cleaner performance attribution, lower tracking error to widely followed sector benchmarks and avoid unintended stock biases.
- Existing TruSector funds: Consumer Discretionary (NASDAQ:TRUD), Technology (NASDAQ:TRUT), Communication Services (NASDAQ:TRUC), Financials (NASDAQ:TRUF), Healthcare (NASDAQ:TRUH), Consumer Staples (NASDAQ:TRUO) and Industrials (NASDAQ:TRUI).
The launch marks the final phase of VanEck’s TruSector rollout, which aims to preserve exposure to a sector’s largest companies without the weighting constraints imposed by diversification rules on conventional ETFs.
According to Michael Cohick, Director of Product Management at VanEck, completing the suite enables investors to build sector allocations that more accurately reflect each industry’s makeup and performance drivers.
The firm’s hybrid active-management approach combines individual stocks with targeted ETFs to maintain uncapped exposure to leading companies while remaining compliant with diversification requirements.
