Deforestation Free Funds sources financial data on equities and mutual funds from Morningstar. Our database contains data on 3,000 open-end and exchange traded mutual funds from the United States. We cover many of the most common funds held in 401(k)s, 403(b)s, and other retirement plans.
Search for mutual funds using name or ticker symbol. Use the search page to filter funds by investing style, fund family, and more. Looking for your favorite fund and can't find it? We don't have everything in our database - we only screen mutual funds that own stocks.
For each mutual fund in our database, we examine every holding and determine if it is a stock issued by a palm oil producer, a bank or financial institution that lends to palm oil producers, or a major consumer goods company that sources palm oil for its products.
Holdings that are not stocks, like currencies, bonds, or other mutual funds, are not rated. A fund’s Percent Rated value is equivalent to the percent of the fund that is invested in stocks. The higher a fund’s Percent Rated value, the more holdings we were able to examine. A fund with a lower Percent Rated value may have hidden palm oil-related holdings that our tool cannot account for.
Three screens are applied to each fund – a list of palm oil producers, a list of banks and lenders that finance those producers, and a list of major consumer brands that use palm oil in their products. Click here to see which specific companies get flagged.
Mutual funds can have a varying number of holdings, from less than one hundred to several thousand. We calculate the total number of flagged holdings in the fund, and the total amount and percentage of the fund’s assets that are invested in those companies.
