1 When IFA Indexes are shown in Index Portfolios, all returns data reflects a deduction of 0.9% annual investment advisory fee, which is the maximum IFA fee. Your fee may be less depending on assets under management at IFA. Unless indicated otherwise, data shown for each individual IFA Index is shown without a deduction of the IFA advisory fee. It is important to understand that the assumption of annual rebalancing has an impact on the monthly returns reported for the IFA index portfolios in both this Table, Table 11.9 and in the Index Calculator. The reason for this difference is that with annual rebalancing, the monthly returns are calculated by applying the asset class percentages to the year-to-date returns as of the beginning and the end of the month, unlike monthly rebalancing which assumes that the portfolio is perfectly in balance at the beginning of the month. At a month-end or year-end, the returns shown above may differ slightly from the returns shown on IFA's big table due to the different methods used in the calculation of the impact of advisory fees. See ifabt.com.

    IFA Socially Responsible Index Portfolios
Socially Responsible investors, including religious institutions, universities, hospitals, among others have long been forced into an active investing approach. Less concerned with risk and return and primarily focused on adherence to overarching guidelines for socially responsible investing, a passively managed index didn’t sort what was acceptable from what wasn’t.

IFA-I’s Socially Responsible Index Portfolios (SRI) provide a ground-breaking solution. Socially responsible investors can enjoy the benefit of passive investing, without sacrificing the integrity of their convictions.
IFA-I’s SRIs provide similar risk and return characteristics as IFA-I’s traditional Index Portfolios, but with a fund screener implemented by a world-class provider of research and analytics.

IFA’s  SRIs are screened to exclude:
  • Companies that earn at least 20% of their total business revenue through the production and/or sale of military weapons and/or weapons of mass destruction

  • Companies that are engaged in certain for-profit business activities in or with the Republic of Sudan

  • Companies that earn at least 15% of their total business revenue through the production and/or sale of tobacco or alcohol products

  • Companies that earn at least 20% of their total business revenue from gambling activities

  • Companies that directly participate in abortions

  • Companies that manufacture pharmaceuticals, abortive agents, or contraceptives

  • Companies that earn at least 15% of their total business revenue from publishing or selling pornographic materials

  • Companies that are for-profit healthcare providers

  • Companies whose operations have had major recent controversies relating to child labor infractions in the U.S. or abroad
