Investing in the future is what we’re all about at Raiz, and with Raiz Plus Portfolios, you can take part in the growth of some of the world’s most dynamic companies through the Global X FANG+ ETF (FANG).
An ETF, or Exchange Traded Fund, is a type of investment fund that holds a collection of different assets, such as stocks or bonds, and is traded on stock exchanges. This means you can invest in a diversified portfolio of companies by adding individual ETFs to your Raiz Plus portfolio.
Raiz Plus Portfolios give you the flexibility to personalise your investment strategy by selecting from a range of ETFs beyond our pre-built options, allowing you to tailor your portfolio to match your specific financial goals and interests.

This means you get to invest in industries that are leading the charge in technological and consumer advancements.
Whether it’s artificial intelligence, e-commerce, cloud computing, or autonomous vehicles, FANG offers a slice of cutting-edge technology. This ETF represents leading companies that are not only dominating today’s tech landscape but also shaping the digital world of tomorrow. By investing in FANG, you gain access to companies at the forefront of progress, with promising growth potential in the ever-evolving tech sector.
Impressive Performance and Considerations
As of 19 August 2024, the Global X FANG+ ETF has shown strong performance, with an annualised return of 20.97% over three years1. Since its launch in February 2020, FANG has been a notable option for those interested in the tech industry. However, it’s important to remember that all investments carry risks, and it’s essential to consider these before diving in.
Navigating the Risks
While the Global X FANG+ ETF offers significant growth opportunities, it also comes with certain risks due to its focus on the technology sector. The tech market can be quite volatile, with rapid changes in consumer preferences, regulatory impacts, and market dynamics leading to potential fluctuations in investment value.
Additionally, the FANG ETF concentrates investment strategy centred on tech and innovation leaders. While this focus can lead to exciting growth, it also means the ETF is less diversified, which could result in increased volatility compared to more diversified investment options.
Before adding the FANG ETF to your Raiz Plus Portfolio, it’s crucial to consider your risk tolerance and investment goals. Understanding the balance between potential rewards and risks is key to making informed investment decisions.
