ETHI
Access 200 Sustainability Change Leaders in One Trade
Horizons Global Sustainability Leaders Index ETF (ETHI) gives investors the opportunity to access a low-carbon-footprint and SRI-screened passive global investment portfolio. The ETF’s underlying index screens for qualifying equities based on a number of factors, including companies that must be identified as a climate leader by the Responsible Investment Committee, with a carbon efficiency that puts it in the top one-third of companies in its industry.
Key Features
• Alignment of investment goals with values: ETHI offers investors the opportunity to make a connection between companies they invest in and the social and governmental challenges facing our planet
• Growth of responsible and ethical investments: Incorporating SRI exposures within long-term strategic planning provides a more complete picture of prospective values for investors. As at 2016, responsible investing accounted for more than USD $22 trillion in assets globally1. In Canada, responsible investments are estimated to total approximately CAD $2.1 trillion – about 51% of the entire Canadian investment industry2

Investment Objective
ETHI seeks to replicate, to the extent possible, the performance of the Nasdaq Future Global Sustainability Leaders USD Index, net of expenses. The Nasdaq Future Global Sustainability Leaders USD Index is designed to provide exposure to the performance of a basket of large-cap equity securities of companies that are global climate change leaders (as measured by their relative carbon efficiency), and are not materially engaged in activities deemed inconsistent with responsible investment considerations. ETHI seeks to hedge the U.S. dollar value of its portfolio to the Canadian dollar at all times.
