Celebrating 2 years of Fidelis 100 Index and Inspire Fidelis ETF

September 13, 2024

The Fidelis 100 Index manager, Wallick Institutional, celebrates the 2-year mark for the Inspire Fidelis Multi-Factor ETF (NYSE: FDLS). Licensed by Inspire Investing with a replication mandate for their FDLS ETF, Fidelis 100’s investment methodology utilizes Inspire Investing’s revolutionary faith-based, biblically responsible social impact screening, and 10+ years’ Morningstar® ranked Wallick Investments’ multi-factor “Fidelis” strategy for equity selection. See Fidelis100.com for methodology, 10+ years of Morningstar® ranked “Fidelis” strategy performance (pp.7-13 of Index Overview), and numerous academic and professional white papers lauding multi-factor investing.

Despite having only (approximately) 12% allocated to large-cap equities, 35% to mid-cap, and 53% to small-caps, the Fidelis 100 Index and associated ETF have performed well over the last two years (see chart).

We are grateful to be working with Inspire to expand investor access to high quality companies, selling at a discount, with both price and earnings momentum, and positive Inspire Social Impact Scores.
– Daniel Wallick, Managing partner and CIO of Wallick Investments
