FYI: Earlier this week, we reported on the iShares ESG MSCI USA Leaders ETF (SUSL), which launched on May 9 with a massive amount of cash from Finnish pension company Ilmarinen (read: "New ESG ETF Has Blockbuster Debut").
That net inflow, worth $847 million, allowed SUSL to squeak past the Xtrackers MSCI U.S.A. ESG Leaders Equity ETF (USSG) to become the largest ETF launch of the past 15 years (read: "ESG ETF's Launch Biggest In 15 Years").
It's a horse race few expected. Two environmental, social and responsible (ESG)-focused ETFs dueling it out for which could make the bigger market splash wasn't on the radar.
