First Trust EIP Power Solutions ETF (FTEG)

Overview

The fund focuses on investing in the equity securities of companies that are actively involved in developing, implementing, or advancing technologies and solutions contributing to a positive carbon impact. This emphasis on sustainability and carbon footprint reduction indicates the fund's alignment with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles. By gearing its investments towards the energy infrastructure sector, the fund positions itself in a critical area for the transition to cleaner energy solutions. It operates with a specific strategy of allocating at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowing for investment purposes, to its target investments. This approach underlines a strong commitment to its mission but also imposes certain market and sectoral concentration risks owing to its non-diversified status. This means the fund's performance is closely tied to the fortunes of the energy infrastructure sector, reflecting the fund's specialized investment focus.
