E*TRADE Capital Management, through its Investment Policy Committee and with support of Investment Strategists, selects, removes, and adds portfolio holdings and determines the program’s rebalancing methodology. Clients will be able to consult with a team of specialists by calling 866-484-3658.
2This strategy includes ETFs that focus on companies known for incorporating socially responsible investing criteria, sometimes referred to as "environmental, social, and governance ("ESG" investing; screening for companies that adhere to ESG standards; or fixed income ETFs focused on community impact securities. This strategy may limit or eliminate exposure to investments in certain industries or companies that do not meet specific ESG criteria. AS a result, the ETF may underperform or outperform other funds or an appropriate benchmark that does not have an SRI or ESG focus and may forgo certain market opportunities available to strategies that do not use these criteria.
Smart beta strategies seek to outperform a benchmark index and typically aim to enhance returns or minimize risk relative to a traditional marketcapitalization-weighted benchmark. An ETF employing a smart beta strategy may have higher portfolio turnover which may indicate higher transactions costs relative to its benchmark. Utilizing smart beta strategies does not guarantee against underperformance relative to a more traditional market-capitalization-weighted benchmark.
