Our read on IQSU
BThe fund that dropped "ESG" from its name in 2023 and kept the screen. Roughly 300 US large caps that score best on Candriam's criteria, weighted by market cap, for 0.09% a year.
Seeks exposure to large-cap U.S. equities (large-cap equity ETF exposure).
Why people hold it
- Charges 0.09% a year, under the 0.14% typical of its large-cap peer group. Screened portfolios usually cost more than that, not less.
- Best-in-class, not blacklist. The index takes top-scoring US large caps on Candriam's criteria and weights by market cap, keeping a broad core shape of about 300 stocks.newyorklifeinvestments.com
- The scorer is family. New York Life built the index with Candriam, its own subsidiary, as consultant, and Solactive calculates it. No rented third-party ratings feed.newyorklifeinvestments.comnewyorklifeinvestments.com
- Live since 2019, it has tracked its index closely and distributes on a quarterly schedule.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded next to the category's giants, so the spread between buy and sell prices can weigh more on a round trip than the yearly fee does.
- Cheap for its cohort, but plain-vanilla rivals go lower: SCHX and VV both run 0.03%.
- A screen means the holdings won't mirror the whole market. The issuer notes the fund may forgo some market opportunities open to funds without these criteria.nylim.com
