ETF description
This ETF is designed to provide exposure to global companies that are considered to have high‑quality characteristics. It tracks an index that selects companies based on factors like profitability, stable earnings, and low levels of debt. The goal is to focus on firms that are financially strong and have the potential to perform well over time, regardless of short‑term market fluctuations. By emphasizing these quality factors, the ETF seeks to offer investors a portfolio of companies that are more resilient during economic downturns or periods of market stress.
