Inspire 500 ETF (PTL) Surpasses $300 Million in Assets Under Management
BOISE, Idaho, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspire Investing today announced that the Inspire 500 ETF (NYSE: PTL) has exceeded $300 million in assets under management (AUM) as of May 2, 2025—a major milestone for both the firm and the broader Biblically Responsible Investing (BRI) movement.
"Crossing the $300 million mark affirms our belief of the growing demand for investments that reflect investor values," said Robert Netzly, CEO of Inspire Investing. "In our experience, more individuals and institutions are seeking alignment between their portfolios and their deeply held beliefs. PTL delivers that alignment—without compromising on cost, transparency, or market exposure."
Launched on March 25, 2024, PTL offers a 0.09% expense ratio. As of March 31, 2025, PTL was among the lowest of any U.S.-listed faith-based equity ETF, based on publicly available data. The fund provides exposure to U.S. large-cap equities that meet biblical values screening criteria, serving as a core equity allocation for faith-driven investors.
