Key figures, answered

What is AQLT.AX's management fee?

BetaShares Australian Quality ETF charges 0.35% a year as of 7 October 2026, about $35 for every $10,000 invested. The fee is deducted from the fund's assets whatever it returns, so it never appears as a bill. Brokerage and the bid-ask spread are extra costs. Compare it with funds that track the same market.

How large is AQLT.AX?

BetaShares Australian Quality ETF manages 1.48B AUD in assets as of 7 October 2026. Size matters because larger funds are less likely to close, which could force investors to sell at an inconvenient time, and they usually trade with tighter bid-ask spreads, a cost that does not appear in the fee.

What does AQLT.AX hold?

BetaShares Australian Quality ETF's largest holdings are CSL Ltd (8.8%), Wesfarmers Ltd (5.9%) and Commonwealth Bank of Australia (5.1%), and its ten largest together make up 49% of the fund. A higher top-ten share means the fund's returns depend more heavily on a few companies. The full holdings are in the issuer's documents.

How has AQLT.AX performed?

BetaShares Australian Quality ETF returned 17.0% a year over three years and 0.0% a year over five, against 0.0% a year for its category over three years. Returns are after the fund's fees but before brokerage and tax. Past performance does not predict future returns, and funds tracking the same index usually differ by little more than cost.
