Description: ESGU iShares ESG Aware MSCI USA October 31, 2025

The iShares ESG Aware MSCI USA ETF (ESGU) seeks to track an optimized U.S. equity index that selects companies with relatively strong environmental, social, and governance (ESG) scores, while maintaining risk-return characteristics close to the broader MSCI USA Index. The fund is required to hold at least 90 % of its assets in the index’s constituent stocks and may allocate up to 10 % to cash, futures, options, or swaps for liquidity and risk-management purposes.

As of the latest filing, ESGU carries an expense ratio of 0.15 % and manages roughly $10 billion in assets, making it one of the larger ESG-focused large-blend ETFs. Its top holdings are heavily weighted toward the technology sector (≈45 % of assets), reflecting the sector’s outsized contribution to U.S. earnings growth. Recent performance shows a 2023 YTD return of about 12 %, closely tracking the S&P 500 (+13 % YTD) but with a modest ESG tilt that has attracted inflows during periods of heightened sustainability focus. Key economic drivers for the fund include U.S. consumer spending trends, the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate policy, and evolving ESG disclosure regulations that can affect sector allocations.
