Artisan Global Value Fund: its sector weights, five snapshots

Five dated snapshots of Artisan Global Value Fund's weight in Health Care, Industrials, Financials and Consumer Discretionary against peers.

As at 12 October 2026, Artisan Global Value Fund has appeared in our weekly sector comparison five times since July 2026, against four different sectors. Read together, the snapshots show what a value approach looks like in sector weights, and one number that did not move.

The five snapshots

Each row shows the fund’s weight in the sector named, as FE classifies it, and the gap to the average for active global equity funds in our data on that date.

Snapshot date Sector Artisan Global Value weight Gap to the average
13 July 2026 Health Care 15.4% +8.9 points
3 August 2026 Industrials 5.0% -3.1 points
24 August 2026 Financials 36.2% +23.4 points
28 September 2026 Consumer Discretionary 6.3% -0.9 points
12 October 2026 Financials 36.2% +22.7 points

What stands out

The Financials weight was 36.2% on 24 August and 36.2% on 12 October. The gap to the average differs between the two dates (23.4 points, then 22.7) since the average itself moved, not the fund. Over that period the fund’s weight in that sector did not change in our data.

The weights in the other sectors are close to or below the average, apart from Health Care, where it sat 8.9 points above. Taken together the snapshots describe a portfolio that holds a large share in Financials and a smaller share elsewhere.

Risk and cost on the latest snapshot

On 12 October 2026 the fund’s worst fall over the three years from 9 October 2023 to 9 October 2026 was 11.5%, measured on daily prices, and its three year return to 30 September 2026 was 64.3%, both in pounds sterling. Its ongoing charge is 0.94%.

What the snapshots do not show

They show weights on five dates, in four sectors. They do not show how the fund chose those weights or whether it will keep them. A fund’s weights can change between any two dates, and our snapshots are weekly at most.

Questions to ask of the snapshots

Snapshots invite practical questions. Were the five dates picked by a sector theme in our weekly comparison, not by anything about the fund, so the table is a set of views rather than a full time series? How would the weights look today? And how do they compare with the average on each date, which also changes? The Financials figure is the only one that appears twice, so it is the only direct comparison across time. For the other sectors, the gap to the average is the main point of reference, and the fund page shows the current holdings. The weights are as reported on those dates, and we have not filled any gap between them.

How to check it yourself

Open the fund page, look at the sector weights today, and compare them with the dates above. If you are shortlisting global value funds, check the same table for each one.

How we calculated these figures

Sector weights come from each fund’s holdings as reported to FE fundinfo and are shown as at the date given. The average is the average for active global equity funds in our data on that date, taken from our weekly sector comparison. Sector labels are as FE classifies them and can differ between data providers.

Returns are FE month-end cumulative returns in pounds sterling, one share class per fund. Where a worst fall is shown, it is measured on daily prices over one window that is the same for every fund compared. Ongoing charges are the latest published figures. We have not adjusted or estimated any figure.
