Performance Chart

All performance information is of the Portfolio Manager account, net of management fees. info

Performance note

All performance information is of the Portfolio Manager account net of management fees, and not of any investing client accounts.

Actual client returns will differ based on client-specified security exclusions, client cash flow behavior (investments and divestments), and trading restrictions placed on client accounts by brokerage.

The management fees applicable to Interactive Advisors proprietary portfolios are actually charged to the Interactive Advisors accounts managing those portfolios, whereas the management fees applicable to Portfolio Manager portfolios are applied retroactively as simulated fees to the Portfolio Manager account returns (as Interactive Advisors does not manage or control these accounts) for purposes of this net-of-fees performance presentation only.
Performance, composition and volatility could vary significantly from that of the benchmark(s), which are provided for illustrative purposes only.

This information was calculated up to Feb 19, 2024.

Estimate your costs info

Cost calculator

All costs shown are estimated and consist of the annual management fee applicable to the specific portfolio displayed. We compute the annual management fee applicable to your investments daily and charge it to you monthly in arrears or in conjunction with a withdrawal.

On a daily basis, the applicable fee associated with each portfolio you invest in will be applied to the end-of-day gross market value of your investment in that portfolio and the resulting amount will be divided by 365. At the end of each month, you will be charged a fee made up of the sum of all daily fees calculated during that month for each portfolio investment. The more assets you invest in a given portfolio with us, the higher the amount of the annual fee charged to you.

No trading commissions apply to trading in any of the portfolios due to the IBKR-LITE commissions structure we have selected for all of your clients. For portfolios including ETFs, additional expense ratios will need to be paid to the ETF issuer and they are not included in this calculation.

Portfolio information

Research

We use detailed third party data for business classification and Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) metrics in our portfolio screening and construction process. We use data from multiple vendors - one vendor that evaluates company disclosed data in annual reports, exchange filings and company websites, and another vendor that gleans information parsed from trade blogs, industry publications and social media using natural language processing and artificial intelligence algorithms. We seek to integrate the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board’s (SASB) materiality framework to find which ESG issues are likely to be material for companies in that industry.

We include companies that focus on product sustainability and lead the industry in embracing new environmental technologies and processes.

Approach

The portfolio is constructed using a rules-based algorithm to determine position allocations. Allocations are weighted based on how well they score on the particular Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) metric. The portfolio is rebalanced quarterly.

Disclosures

Past performance is no guarantee of future results, and all investments, including those in this portfolio, involve the risk of loss, including loss of principal and a reduction in earnings.

This portfolio was launched on Interactive Advisors on July 16, 2020. On that date, Interactive Advisors started trading its own funds in a brokerage account trading this strategy. This portfolio was opened to client investments on July 16, 2020. All performance information on this page is actual performance of the Interactive Advisors proprietary account and presented “net of fees”. The actual performance chart is provided for informational purposes only, and should not be used as the basis for making an investment decision. Actual client returns will differ.

The ESG variants of the Smart Beta and Asset Allocation Portfolios and the Socially Responsible Investing portfolios use an Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) investment strategy. Such a strategy could limit the types and number of investment opportunities available to this portfolio, lead the portfolio to underperform a portfolio without an ESG focus or with a distinct ESG focus, and result in the portfolio investing in securities or industry sectors that underperform the market as a whole or foregoing opportunities to invest in securities that might otherwise be advantageous to invest in. Interactive Advisors could also be unsuccessful in creating a portfolio investing in stocks of companies or ETFs made up of companies that exhibit positive or favorable ESG characteristics and the ETF manager (or the provider of the index the ETF seeks to track) may not succeed in selecting issuers that exhibit positive or favorable ESG characteristics in constructing the ETFs.

Additional information on the risks, conflicts of interest, applicable brokerage commissions, fractional shares, and limitations on investments and divestments associated with this portfolio can be found here and on the Forms and Agreements page.

Important information

cancel

The actual performance of the manager account displayed on this page is based on the performance of an Interactive Advisors proprietary account invested using this strategy and is calculated by Interactive Advisors on a daily time-weighted basis, including cash, dividends and earnings distributions. The actual performance for this portfolio is presented “net of fees” and reflects the deduction of the Interactive Advisors advisory fee, Interactive Brokers LLC brokerage and other commissions (when commissions were charged) and expenses that a client has to pay if he invests in this portfolio after the launch date, but not any fees clients must separately pay the issuers of any ETFs.
We rely on mathematical formulas, computer programs, and pricing information from third-party vendors (e.g., Refinitiv Worldscope database) to provide these returns. Neither Interactive Advisors nor any of its data or content providers shall be liable for any errors in this information or any actions taken by you in reliance upon this information.
None of the performance information displayed on this page is based on the actual performance of any Interactive Advisors client account investing in this portfolio. The performance in an Interactive Advisors client account invested in this portfolio may differ (i.e., be lower or higher) from the performance of the account managing this portfolio and portrayed on this page based on a variety of factors, such as trading restrictions imposed by the client (resulting in different account holdings), time of initial investment, amount of investment, frequency and size of cash flows in and out of the client account, applicable brokerage commissions (when commissions were charged), and different corporate actions. Clients investing in this portfolio may view the actual performance of their investment in this portfolio by logging into their Interactive Advisors account and reviewing their customized dashboard.
Not all transactions underlying the performance information displayed on this page will appear in accounts due to Interactive Advisors’ trading rules and individual client constraints. Eligibility of these securities is monitored periodically, and may change over time. Actual client investment holdings may vary.
Clients may restrict any of the securities traded in their account, but should note that any restrictions they place on their investments could affect the performance of their account leading it to perform differently, worse or better, than (a) the above-portrayed account managing the portfolio or (b) other client accounts invested in the same portfolio.
All graph data is as of the end of day for the referenced period, unless otherwise specified. The investment minimum is the minimum investment required to follow a particular portfolio. The minimum amount is determined by Interactive Advisors, based on the characteristics of the underlying portfolio. It should not be considered as specific investment advice for your investment situation.
Interactive Advisors’ management of this portfolio and some of the information on this page relies on data from third-party sources, including third parties providing the model portfolio strategy or ESG score information, as applicable. While Interactive Advisors believes that the data it uses in its investment management processes is obtained from reliable sources, it did not audit or validate this data, which may contain errors.
Benchmark returns displayed in the performance graph upon selection are provided for illustrative purposes only and have been calculated by Interactive Advisors using daily adjusted close prices and include dividend income. Benchmarks available for display are selected based on overall strategy, trade history and other criteria. If you choose to display benchmark returns in the performance graph, be mindful of the fact that the performance, composition and volatility of the portfolio could vary significantly from that of the benchmark(s) available for display. There can be no assurance that a benchmark will remain appropriate over time and Interactive Advisors will periodically review the benchmark’s appropriateness and decide to use other benchmarks if appropriate. More information here. Interactive Advisors uses only investable ETFs as benchmarks. Investable ETF returns reflect the deduction of (i.e., are net of) management fees, transaction costs and expenses.
Transaction history is available upon request. Portfolio classifications are provided by Interactive Advisors, and are intended to serve as a general guide.
In addition to Interactive Advisors' management fees, clients will also be charged management fees and other expenses (custodian fees, brokerage commissions, and legal and accounting fees) by ETF issuers if the portfolio contains ETFs.
Quarterly, monthly or more frequent rebalances in this portfolio (as applicable) will result in numerous transactions in many or all the stocks or ETFs in the portfolio and the client accounts invested in this portfolio. Clients could be required to report some or all of these periodic rebalance trades on their tax forms. Clients should consult an accountant or tax attorney on tax matters as Interactive Advisors does not provide tax advice or prepare tax documents for its clients. Interactive Brokers LLC provides certain tools to assist you with your tax filings, but these tools may only be able to support a limited number of trades.
