Inspire’s newest faith-based ETF passes $100M AUM in 11 days

Inspire recently launched the lowest cost faith-based U.S. large cap ETF available, the Inspire 500 ETF (NYSE: PTL), which reached $100M AUM in just 11 days, from March 25 to April 4, 2024.

Boise, ID, April 24, 2024 – Inspire Investing, the world’s largest provider of faith-based ETFs, recently launched the lowest cost faith-based U.S. large cap ETF available, the Inspire 500 ETF (NYSE: PTL), which reached $100M AUM in just 11 days, from March 25 to April 4, 2024.

PTL offers a 0.09% expense ratio, giving faith-based investors access to U.S. large cap, biblically screened companies at the lowest price point available. Robert Netzly, CEO of Inspire, believes that this competitive rate is spurring the fast growth of this fund.

“Both advisors and their clients have been asking for lower costs when it comes to faith-based investing, and PTL not only provides this but also avoids the problematic ‘Magnificent 7’ since they are screened out of all our funds. These factors, I believe, have led to one of the fastest growing funds we’ve ever launched,” says Netzly.

About the Inspire 500 ETF (NYSE: PTL)

PTL was launched on March 25, 2024, and is constructed to be a core holding for equity portfolio allocations by providing exposure to the 500 largest United States companies (by market cap) with biblical values alignment determined by Inspire Impact Scores of zero or higher, and has no exposure to the “Magnificent 7.” With an expense ratio of just 0.09% and a passive, market cap weighted index construction, PTL seeks to provide low cost, efficient equity exposure to investors.

ETF shares are not redeemable with the issuing fund other than in large Creation Unit aggregations. Instead, investors must buy or sell ETF Shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a stockbroker. In doing so, the investor may incur brokerage commissions and may pay more than net asset value when buying and receive less than net asset value when selling. The NAV of the Fund’s shares is calculated each day the national securities exchanges are open for trading as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time (the “NAV Calculation Time”). Shares are bought and sold at market price (closing price) not NAV. Market Price returns are based upon the official closing price on the listing exchange (NYSE ARCA) at 4:00 p.m. ET when NAV is normally determined for most Inspire Funds, and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.

An active secondary market for the Fund’s shares may not exist. Although the Fund’s shares will be listed on an exchange, subject to notice of issuance, it is possible that an active trading market may not develop or be maintained. There is no guarantee that distributions will be paid.
