American Companies
Details
ETF description
This ETF provides exposure to a selection of U.S. companies that meet certain environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. It aims to track the performance of an index that includes companies with strong ESG practices while excluding those involved in controversial activities or industries such as weapons, tobacco, or fossil fuels. This approach is intended to align with responsible investing principles.
The ETF may appeal to investors who want to invest in U.S. companies but prioritize sustainability and ethical considerations. By focusing on ESG factors, the fund seeks to include businesses that manage their environmental impact, treat employees and communities responsibly, and follow strong corporate governance practices.
