CATH provides exposure to companies within the S&P 500® whose business practices adhere to the Socially Responsible Investment Guidelines as outlined by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), excluding those that do not.

CHRI provides exposure to companies within the S&P 500® whose business practices adhere to the biblical values as outlined by Bountiful Financial, LLC's Christian Evangelical Framework, excluding those that do not.

CPTL seeks to invest in companies that exhibit strong capital allocation practices, as measured by Morningstar's proprietary Capital Allocation Rating framework, which assesses how well a company's leadership team uses cash based on a forward-looking evaluation of management's capital allocation decisions.

CEFA can complement a core equity allocation for investors seeking international exposure aligned with Catholic principles.

By combining values-based screens with industry-weight alignment to the broader market, the fund seeks to deliver diversified developed ex-U.S. exposure with potentially minimized tracking error, letting investors put their capital to work without compromising their convictions.

CEFA excludes companies involved in activities perceived to be inconsistent with Catholic values as set out by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, including screens for weaponry and child labor.

By matching sector weightings, CEFA seeks to minimize tracking error to the S&P EPAC ex-Korea Large Cap Index (a benchmark for developed markets outside of the U.S.).

CEFA allows investors to buy and sell a broad basket of global equities that conform with Catholic guidelines, with the tax efficiency of an ETF.

  1. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. High short-term performance, when observed, is unusual and investors should not expect such performance to be repeated.
  2. Performance is shown on a total return basis (i.e., with gross income reinvested, where applicable). Cumulative return is the aggregate amount that an investment has gained or lost over time. Annualized return is the average return gained or lost by an investment each year over a given time period.

Overview

About This Fund

The Global X S&P Catholic Values Developed ex-U.S. ETF (CEFA) provides exposure to large cap companies in developed markets outside of the U.S., whose business practices adhere to the Socially Responsible Investment Guidelines of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).

How the Fund Works

The Global X S&P Catholic Values Developed ex-U.S. ETF (CEFA) seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the S&P Developed ex-U.S. Catholic Values Index.

The Index is designed to track the performance of large-cap companies in developed markets outside of the United States while maintaining alignment with the moral and social teachings of the Catholic Church. It excludes companies with revenue exposure to activities that are not aligned with the Responsible Investment Guidelines of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). The Index then re-weights remaining constituents to match the industry weights of a broad developed ex-U.S. benchmark (the S&P EPAC ex-Korea LargeCap index) in an effort to reduce tracking error to the international equity index.

Highlights

  • Faith-based revenue screen
  • Passively managed; developed markets ex-United States exposure
  • Catholic values-aligned holdings

The Premium/Discount chart demonstrates the difference between the daily market price of shares of the Fund and the Fund's net asset value (NAV). The vertical axis of the chart shows the premium or discount of the daily market price as a percentage of the NAV. The horizontal axis shows each trading day in the time period, and each data point in the chart represents the Premium/Discount on that day. The data presented in the chart and table above represent past performance and cannot be used to predict future results.

The primary explanation is that timing discrepancies can arise between the NAV and the trading price of the Fund. Since shares of the Fund trade on the open market, prices are affected by the constant flow of information received by investors, corporations and financial institutions. Depending on how this changing information affects investor sentiment, shares of the Fund may deviate slightly from the value of the Fund's underlying assets. The NAV of the Fund is only calculated once a day (normally at 4:00 p.m. eastern time). As a result, shareholders may pay more than NAV when they buy Fund shares and receive less than NAV when they sell those shares, because shares are purchased and sold at current market prices. However, due to the creation and redemption process that is unique to ETFs, market makers are able to minimize these deviations from NAV by taking advantage of arbitrage opportunities.

Close of Trading Times. Although both the NAV and the daily market price of the Fund are generally calculated based on prices at the closing time of the exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time), slight differences in this timing may cause discrepancies.

Time of Last Trade. Trading of Global X funds generally takes place during normal trading hours (9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. eastern time). However, it is important to note that the last trade - from which the closing price is determined - may not occur at exactly 4:00 p.m. eastern time. Therefore, changing market sentiment during the time difference may cause the NAV to deviate from the closing price.

International Holdings. The premiums and discounts for funds with significant holdings in international markets may be less accurate due to the different closing times of various international markets. Because the Funds trade during U.S. market hours while the underlying securities may not, the time lapse between the markets can result in differences between the NAV and the trading price.

The Hypothetical Growth of $10,000 chart reflects a hypothetical $10,000 investment at the first trading date of the period shown and assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund expenses, including management fees and other expenses were deducted.
The performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted, and numbers may reflect small variances due to rounding. Standardized performance and performance data current to the most recent month end may be found in the Performance section.
