Ethical trading · the screen, explained honestly

Invest with your values intact.

This is values-first investing: one screen that tests every company for quality, valuation, and conduct before it earns a place. It includes Shariah principles alongside classical value tests, and it serves anyone who wants their capital to answer to a standard. Never Shariah-only, never values-optional. A values screen narrows the universe. That is the point: fewer names, held to a higher bar.

The record · screened against unscreened

The data says no sacrifice.

The honest worry about any values screen is that principles cost performance. So we publish the line and let you read it: the TE500, our screened five hundred, against the S&P 500, unscreened.

Ethical screening acts as a quality filter. Companies with sound governance, low leverage, and clean revenue streams tend to outperform. The data suggests disciplined screening reduces drawdowns while keeping returns competitive. Past performance is a record, not a promise.

The method · three lenses, one score

A values screen narrows the universe. That is the point.

Every ticker is measured against the same standard, and the standard is written here in full. Nothing passes on sentiment. Three lenses, one score:

  • Classical value · 45% P/E ratio, free cash flow yield, dividend coverage, growth trajectory. Graham and Buffett's principles, quantified. The fundamentals that have compounded wealth for a century.
  • Intrinsic value · 35% DCF modelling, fair value estimation, margin of safety. What is the business actually worth, stripped of market sentiment and noise.
  • Ethical compliance · 20% Revenue purity above 95%, debt to assets below 33%, interest income screening. AAOIFI-standard compliance with practical thresholds. This is where the universe narrows, on purpose.

What falls out at step two never comes back, whatever its chart looks like. That is the honest cost of a values screen, and the register above shows what survives it.
