The KLD Select Social^SM Index (SSI) is optimized to maximize exposure to positive environmental, social, and governance factors while exhibiting risk and return characteristics similar to those of the S&P 500 ^® Index. The Index is sector-diversified, holding companies with the highest social and environmental scores from each sector.  To adhere to a large capitalization style, the eligible universe is limited to companies in the S&P 900^® Index. Tobacco companies are not eligible.
