Our read on CHGX

ETF.net Research

CMost ESG funds keep the S&P 500's shape and shave the edges. CHGX starts over: a fossil-fuel-free US large-cap index of roughly 100 names, each weighted about the same, so no mega-cap runs the show.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the Change Finance Diversified Impact U.S. Large Cap Fossil Fuel Free Index.

Why people hold it

  1. 01The fossil fuel exclusion is written into the index itself, not layered on as a tilt: it tracks the Change Finance Diversified Impact U.S. Large Cap Fossil Fuel Free Index.
  2. 02Equal weighting spreads roughly 100 US large caps evenly, so the portfolio does not lean on a handful of trillion-dollar names the way cap-weighted ESG funds like ESGV and EFIV do.
  3. 03Live since 2017, with the same fossil-free mandate spelled out in its filings and a portfolio that closely matches it.

Worth knowing

  1. 01At 0.49% a year it runs about double the 0.25% cohort median, and the broad ESG index giants (XVV at 0.08%, ESGV at 0.09%) charge a fraction of that.
  2. 02Thinly traded, which usually means wider bid-ask spreads and more price impact on big orders. Limit orders are the standard tool here.
  3. 03Equal weight plus a fossil-fuel screen means results can diverge widely from the S&P 500 in both directions, especially when mega-cap tech or energy leads.
