About SNTKX
Steward International Enhanced Index Fund Class A is an actively managed mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing in large and mid-cap companies outside the United States. The fund tracks the S&P International 700 ADR Index as its main benchmark and utilizes a quantitative, computer-aided approach to portfolio construction, adjusting weights across developed and emerging markets based on valuation, growth, and dividend factors. Unique to this fund is its rigorous values-based screening process, which excludes investments in companies materially involved in sectors such as alcohol, tobacco, gambling, abortion services, stem cell research from human embryos, adult entertainment, and recreational cannabis. This ethical screening shapes the composition of the portfolio, balancing sector and regional diversification while adhering to the fund’s values mandate. Steward International Enhanced Index Fund Class A plays a significant role in the foreign large blend category, offering exposure to a broad spectrum of international industries while integrating faith-based and ethical considerations into its investment strategy. The fund is managed by Crossmark Global Investments and was established in March 2006.
