Etho Climate Leadership Index – US
vs. the U.S. Equal-Weight Market
Growth of 100, rebased to the index’s live launch on November 3, 2015, through July 29, 2026, against its equal-weighted structural peers — the like-for-like comparison for an equal-weighted strategy. These are index levels, not the returns of any fund.

Climate & ESG Returns
Etho Capital® is a financial technology firm that builds public equity index strategies with climate and sustainability analysis at the center of each portfolio’s construction — not as a screen bolted on at the end.
We also work directly with asset owners to measure portfolio-wide climate impact and develop strategies to achieve their decarbonization targets. The aim throughout is to hold that standard and a competitive, broadly diversified portfolio at the same time — and to disclose what our research finds.
Our flagship US strategy is the Etho Climate Leadership Index.® It is available as the ETHO ETF (NYSE: ETHO), sponsored by Amplify ETFs — buy it through your brokerage, or see fund details and performance at ETHOETF.com.
Our global strategy is the ETHO MarketVector Global Climate Positive Index™, built on our Climate Positive Investing™ process.

Invested in innovation
Etho Capital is built on a simple conviction: climate risk is financial risk, and the companies that manage it well are often the better-run companies. We treat carbon efficiency as a signal — a company that wastes less carbon tends to waste less of everything, running leaner, managing risk more carefully, and positioning itself for a lower-carbon economy. That read on operational quality sits at the core of how every Etho index is built.
We don't ask you to take the thesis on faith. The Etho Climate Leadership Index – US has been calculated in real time by an independent administrator since November 2015 — and its live track record, shown above, is that conviction tested in real markets, not a backtest.
