Fund Details
Investment Thesis
SUSA is the ESG methodology done positively: rather than merely excluding sin sectors, it optimises toward the highest-rated companies in each industry while constraining tracking error — best-in-class, not banishment. Two decades of returns hugging the S&P 500 rebut the performance-sacrifice assumption, and the +19% year kept the pattern.
Who It's For
Values-aligned investors who want ratings-led selection rather than simple exclusions, with index-like behaviour. The methodological counterpoint to Vanguard's exclusion-based ESGV.
