RSPE

RSPE follows an equal-weighted index designed to provide exposure to US large-cap companies that exhibit ESG attributes. Selection begins with the constituents of the investable universe - the S&P 500 Index. Each eligible company is ranked based on their assigned S&P DJI ESG scores as measured by their ability to identify and react to surfacing opportunities and issues in the global market. Typically, the top 40% within each GICS industry in general is included. Companies are also screened based on business activities that are against its ESG criteria. This include those that derive more than 25% of revenue from, or have at least 11% ownership on companies related to oil and gas exploration, military, weapons, nuclear power, gambling, addiction, and environmental degradation. Firms that perform poorly against UNGC principles are also excluded. The index is reconstituted annually and rebalanced quarterly. RSPE gives the same exposure as its sister fund, RSP, but with a tilt to ESG.
