Xtrackers S&P 500 Growth ESG ETF(AMEX:SNPG)

SNPG follows an index designed to provide exposure to large-cap growth companies in the US that display positive environmental, social, and corporate governance attributes. The index is constructed beginning with all the components of the S&P 500 Growth Index, the parent index. Each security undergoes various ESG screens to exclude those that do not have an ESG score or fall below the accepted 25%, and/or participate in business activities involving tobacco products, controversial weapons, thermal coal, oil sands, and assault weapons. The remaining securities are then selected for inclusion using their determined ESG scores, targeting 75% of the market-cap of each industry within the parent index. Each security is then market cap-weighted. The index is rebalanced annually and reweights quarterly.
