VIOG offers exposure to the US small-cap growth segment. The fund pulls from the S&P SmallCap 600 Index and uses three growth factors: sales growth, earnings change to price ratio, and momentum in selecting stocks with the best growth characteristics. In addition, eligible securities are also screened for liquidity, while at the same time considering free-float percentage and positive reported earnings over the most recent four consecutive quarters. Selected securities are weighted by market capitalization, with annual rebalance.
