Because the most important factor is you

The Hartford Funds suite of multifactor ETFs is designed to help you navigate a potential lower-growth, higher-volatility market going forward.

ETFs That Seek Outperformance
Our research-driven, rules-based strategies differ from traditional passive funds that are limited to investing based strictly on company size.

Enhance Growth Potential
Using a comprehensive approach, we emphasize high-quality companies, trading at attractive prices, that are being recognized by the market.

Improve Diversification
Our strategies seek to track indices designed to reduce concentrated exposures to individual countries, companies, and sectors.

Factors are the “building blocks” of securities which can explain the drivers of risk and return. Hartford Funds focuses on value, momentum, and quality factors for enhanced return potential. Diversification does not eliminate the risk of loss.

* The strategy seeks to achieve a volatility reduction target up to the amount noted over a complete market cycle. There is no guarantee that a fund will achieve its investment objective. Source: Hartford Funds.

Multifactor ETF Overview


Important Risks: Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. • Foreign investments may be more volatile and less liquid than U.S. investments and are subject to the risk of currency fluctuations and adverse political and economic developments. These risks may be greater for investments in emerging markets. • Small cap securities can have greater risk and volatility than large-cap securities. • The Funds are not actively managed but rather attempt to track the performance of an index. The Funds' returns may diverge from that of the index. Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market.
