Schwab Launches Schwab Personalized Indexing™
Charles Schwab has introduced Schwab Personalized Indexing™, a direct indexing solution aimed at both retail investors and registered investment advisors.

Fees start at 0.40%, making it competitive in the market. Additional features and strategies are expected to roll out in the next 12-18 months.

There are risks associated with any investment approach, and each Schwab Personalized Indexing strategy and equity market segment has their own set of risks based on client strategy selection and further customization.
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategies implemented by mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and separately managed accounts are currently subject to inconsistent industry definitions and standards for the measurement and evaluation of ESG factors; therefore, such factors may differ significantly across strategies. As a result, it may be difficult to compare ESG investment products. An investment product’s ESG strategy may significantly influence its performance. Carefully review an investment product’s prospectus or disclosure brochure to learn more about how it incorporates ESG factors into its investment strategy.
There can be no assurance that the strategies will achieve their desired outcomes. Each investing strategy brings with it its own set of unique risks and benefits.
