The fund is passively managed to look for high quality stocks in the large- and mid-cap segment of the US equity market. Eligible securities are scored for quality, which is determined based on three fundamental factors: high return on equity (ROE), stable year-over-year earnings growth, and low financial leverage. Portfolio holdings are weighted by quality score, scaled by market capitalization. Single issuer weights are capped at 5%. The index is rebalanced semi-annually in November and May.
