AXS Knowledge Leaders ETF (KNO)

The AXS Knowledge Leaders ETF (KNO) is a passively managed fund from AXS Investments that seeks to track the Knowledge Leaders Developed World Index.

The index focuses on companies across developed markets that invest heavily in intangible assets such as research and development, patents, brands, proprietary processes and employee expertise. The methodology adjusts traditional financial statements to account for this knowledge capital and then selects companies that appear attractive on that basis.

Holdings span many sectors and countries, including the United States, Europe and Japan, giving the fund a global developed-market equity profile shaped by an emphasis on innovation and intellectual capital.
