Q: Good morning 5i staff
I have been waiting for the turn towards esg etf's. Looking at something like ESGV, do you think it could be seen, say, as an equivalent to voo? there was an artcle in Barron's recently saying that they recently have done as well, or better than regular funds. I believe the managment excpense ratio is .12 Not bad. I hold VOO and have been thinking of selling call options on it and then buying something like esgv, if I am called away. I suppose that approach could not be called radically green maybe more like patiently green:).
thanks
