Smart Europe ESG ETF — Investor Relations & Filings

The Smart Europe ESG ETF is an exchange-traded fund designed to provide exposure to a diversified portfolio of European equities that meet specific environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. The fund typically tracks an index composed of large and mid-cap companies across developed European markets, applying screens to exclude entities involved in controversial activities such as tobacco production, thermal coal mining, and the manufacture of controversial weapons. By focusing on companies with high ESG ratings, the fund aims to align investment performance with sustainable business practices and responsible corporate behavior. It offers a liquid and transparent vehicle for investors seeking broad market access to the European region while mitigating risks associated with poor governance or negative environmental impacts. The fund utilizes a passive investment strategy to maintain consistency with its benchmark index and ensure cost-effective management.
