BMO MSCI EAFE Selection Equity Index ETF (ESGE.TO)
About this ETF
This BMO ETF aims to mirror, as closely as practicable, the investment performance of the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index, after accounting for its operating expenses. The fund strategically allocates capital to companies located in developed global equity markets, specifically excluding those in Canada and the United States. It prioritizes businesses that demonstrate superior Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings when compared to their industry peers. To achieve this, the ETF directly holds the same underlying securities as the index, maintaining identical proportional weights.
