The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued a public notice that it intends to approve Dimensional's exemptive relief application to offer exchange-traded fund (ETF) and mutual fund share classes.
Since filing for exemptive relief in July of 2023, Dimensional, the largest active ETF issuer in the US, has consistently advocated for the benefits that the share class structure could provide both mutual fund-class and ETF-class shareholders. Mutual fund-class shareholders could benefit through lower transaction costs and greater tax efficiency, while ETF-class shareholders could also benefit from more efficient rebalancing using mutual fund cash flows and lower total portfolio transaction costs, among other benefits of scale passed along to both sets of investors.

Central Banks Drive $407 Billion ETF Surge as Industry Consolidation Accelerates
September 22, 2025-Global central banks have purchased over 1,000 tonnes of gold annually for the last three years, representing a dramatic acceleration from the 400-500 tonne average of the preceding decade, according to the World Gold Council[1].
This institutional demand has catalyzed a parallel surge in gold ETFs, with global assets under management hitting a record $407 billion in August following three consecutive months of inflows totaling over $18 billion[2].
The sustained institutional buying is coinciding with unprecedented M&A activity in the gold sector, where deals increased 32% to 62 transactions in 2024, accounting for 70% of all mining M&A activity as companies seek scale and operational leverage[3]. This convergence of central bank accumulation, institutional flows, and strategic consolidation is creating exceptional conditions for companies like RUA GOLD Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF), i-80 Gold Corp. (NYSE-American: IAUX) (TSX: IAU), OceanaGold Corporation (TSX: OGC) (OTCQX: OCANF), Osisko Development Corp. (NYSE: ODV) (TSXV: ODV), and New Found Gold Corp. (NYSE-American: NFGC) (TSXV: NFG).
