Vident’s proprietary investment philosophy is expressed through distinct fundamentals that we believe should be top of mind when it comes to investing. These fundamentals are woven through the construction of the Vident Quality U.S. Stock Index™ (VQUSX) and the Vident U.S. Equity Strategy ETF™ that tracks it. The application of Vident’s investment methodology seeks to produce a portfolio with exposure to companies with high-quality governance and management standards that are trading at reasonable valuations relative to the market.

Performance quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so you may have a gain or loss when shares are sold. Current performance may be higher or lower than that quoted. Short term performance is not a good indication of the fund’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns.

Vident does not guarantee the performance or success of any product, investment services, or investment idea; the limitation of risk; or potential tax outcomes. Investment objectives, risks, and potential outcomes are particular to the facts and circumstances then present. When contacting Vident via this website, you should not include any proprietary, confidential, or material non-public information in your message. While measures are taken to ensure the privacy of your communication, Vident cannot guarantee its privacy.
Separately managed accounts and related investment advisory services are provided by Vident Investment Advisory, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser. Registration of an investment adviser does not imply any certain level of skill or training.
Carefully consider the Vident ETF’s investment objectives, risk factors, charges, and expenses before investing. To obtain a prospectus, download one here or call 800-617-0004. Please read it carefully before investing.Â
Performance quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so you may have a gain or loss when shares are sold. Current performance may be higher or lower than that quoted. Short term performance is not a good indication of a Vident ETF’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns.Â
Investing involves risk, including the risk of loss of principal. VUSE has the same risks as the underlying securities traded on the exchange throughout the day at market price. Redemptions are limited and often commissions are charged on each trade. The ETF invests in securities of giant market capitalization companies (companies in the top 40% by market capitalization at time of purchase), large market capitalization companies (companies in the top 40-70% range by market capitalization at the time of purchase), and small/mid (SMID) market capitalization companies (remaining companies in the bottom 30% of the Index universe). SMID companies tend to have more limited liquidity and greater price volatility than larger capitalization companies.The ETF invests in the securities included in, or representative of its Index regardless of their investment merits. The performance of the ETF may diverge from the Index. Because the ETF employs a representative sampling strategy and may also invest up to 20% of its assets in securities that are not included in the Index, the ETF may experience a tracking error to a greater extent than a fund that seeks to replicate an index. The ETF is not actively managed and its performance may be adversely affected by a general decline in the market segments relating to its Index. The ETF may invest a significant portion of its assets in the securities of companies of a particular sector of the economy therefore its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors.Â
Investor shares are bought and sold at market price (not net asset value or NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV, and are not individually redeemed from a Vident ETF. Ordinary brokerage commissions may apply.Â
The ETF’s investment adviser is Vident Advisory, LLC. VUSE’s sub-adviser is Vident Investment Advisory (VIA). Vident Financial owns the index that underlies the ETF. The Vident U.S. Equity Strategy ETF™ is distributed by ALPS Distributors, LLC. ALPS is not affiliated with Vident Financial, Vident Advisory or VIA.
