Hotchkis & Wiley, a global investment manager specializing in value equity and high yield strategies, today announced the launch of a new exchange-traded fund (ETF) share class for its Global Value Fund. The new ETF is the Hotchkis & Wiley Global Value Fund (HWGV).
This new ETF reflects Hotchkis & Wiley’s continued commitment to offer its strategies through multiple investment vehicles, providing investors with the choice between a mutual fund and an ETF that trades on an exchange throughout the day, backed by the same portfolio and investment team.
The Global Value strategy invests in 40-80 attractively valued companies across the domestic and international equity markets, giving portfolio managers broad flexibility across market cap and geography to pursue the firm’s best investment ideas.
“The strategy for this ETF share class is identical to that of the existing mutual fund, backed by Hotchkis & Wiley’s experienced investment team. For investors, that means the same disciplined approach, now paired with the added benefits of intraday liquidity and tax efficiency that ETFs can offer,” said Scott McBride, Chief Executive Officer of Hotchkis & Wiley.
The addition of this ETF share class builds on the firm’s expansion into the ETF ecosystem, following the 2025 launch of its first standalone ETF, the Hotchkis & Wiley SMID-Cap Diversified Value ETF (HWSM), and the July 2026 launch of ETF share classes for the International Value Fund (HWIV) and Opportunities Fund (HWO). These ETFs give investors broader flexibility to access Hotchkis & Wiley’s actively managed strategies in the format that best suits their needs.

Disclosures
Investors should consider the Hotchkis & Wiley Global Value Fund investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. This and other important information are contained in the Funds summary prospectus and prospectus, which can be obtained by calling 800-796-5606. Read carefully before you invest.
Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. The Global Value Fund may invest in foreign and emerging markets securities, which subjects the Fund to increased risk. Please read the prospectus for a full list of fund risks. Diversification does not assure a profit nor protect against loss in a declining market.
ETFs are subject to additional risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including the risks that the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or discount to its net asset value (NAV), an active secondary trading market may not develop or be maintained, or trading may be halted by the exchange in which they trade, which may impact an ETF’s ability to sell its shares. Unlike mutual funds, ETF shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than their NAV, and are not individually redeemed from the fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
New funds have limited operating histories for investors to evaluate and new and smaller funds may not attract sufficient assets to achieve investment and trading efficiencies.
