What is AWEG?

The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of mid-cap growth companies with an environmental, social and governance ("ESG") rating of medium or better, as rated by Sustainalytics, a third-party ESG rating agency. For purposes of the Fund's principal investment strategies, "mid-cap companies" are those companies that, at the time of purchase of the securities, primarily have total market capitalization within the range of (i) companies included in the Russell Midcap Growth Index, as reported by the index at the most recent quarter end, or (ii) $1 billion to $25 billion. At December 31, 2022, the companies in this index ranged from $735.7 million to $ 52.8 billion. Because of the Fund's long-term approach to investing, it could have a significant portion of its assets invested in securities of issuers that have appreciated beyond the market capitalization thresholds noted.

What is ETF correlation?

Correlation is a measure of the strength of the relationship between two ETFs. It quantifies the degree to which prices of the two ETFs typically move together.

Here, correlation is measured over the past year with the Pearson correlation coefficient (Pearon’s r), which ranges from -1 to 1.
