🎯 Investment Strategy
NUSA seeks to replicate the performance of the Bloomberg MSCI US 1-5 Year Aggregate ESG Select Index, which is designed to provide exposure to U.S. investment-grade fixed-rate bonds with maturities between 1 and 5 years, while excluding securities of companies involved in certain business activities that do not meet specific ESG criteria.
