"On Thursday, July 13, 2023, Dimensional Fund Advisors took another big step to advance its presence in the exchange-traded fund market.
The firm filed a request with the SEC that, if approved, would allow its existing mutual funds to offer an ETF share class.
The hybrid mutual fund-ETF structure is currently used exclusively by many of Vanguard’s index-tracking mutual funds.
The Malvern, Pennsylvania, based firm had a patent on this unique fund structure that expired in May.
Dimensional’s filing is the second of its kind in 2023. PGIA made a similar filing on Feb. 7 in anticipation of Vanguard’s patent expiring."
