The company is focused on investing primarily in large capitalization equity securities from both foreign and emerging markets. These investments are selected based on the Inspire Impact Score™, which assesses the positive impact and ethical alignment of the companies. By committing at least 80% of its total assets to securities within its designated index, the fund aims to offer investors exposure to international markets while adhering to specific impact and ethical investment criteria. This strategy is designed for investors seeking to align their investments with their values, particularly in the realm of social and environmental responsibility, across a diversified portfolio of international companies.
This service involves investing in equity securities of large capitalization companies situated outside of the investor's home country. These companies are selected from a global universe of publicly traded stocks, based on their performance and ethical impact as measured by the Inspire Impact Score™. Such investments offer a way to diversify portfolios and tap into the growth potential of foreign markets, including emerging markets, while adhering to certain ethical standards.
Aside from established foreign markets, the fund also offers investment opportunities in emerging markets. Emerging markets are often characterized by their rapid economic growth compared to more mature markets. This product targets companies within these regions that meet the ethical and impact criteria set by the Inspire Impact Score™, offering investors the chance to participate in the dynamic growth of these economies through a socially responsible investment lens.
The Inspire Impact Score™ is a proprietary tool used by the fund to assess the positive social and environmental impact of the companies within its investment universe. By investing in companies that have an Inspire Impact Score™ of zero or higher, the fund aims to ensure that its investments align with certain ethical and impact criteria. This approach allows investors to support companies that contribute positively to society and the environment, while potentially benefiting from their financial performance.
