USSG holds a basket of companies that score highly for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors. The funds index uses MSCIs ESG rating methodology to assign a score to all US large- and mid-cap stocks. The index automatically screens out companies involved in severe business controversies as well as those companies engaged in alcohol, tobacco, gambling, weapons and nuclear power. The fund may include US companies outside the index as long as it has a BB MSCI ESG Rating and an MSCI ESG Controversies Score of 3 or above. At triannual rebalance, the fund selects about half the available market cap in each sector, emphasizing higher ESG ratings, larger firms, and current constituents. Prior to Feb. 3, 2025, the fund was named Xtrackers MSCI USA ESG Leaders Equity ETF, and tracked MSCI USA ESG Leaders Index.
