THE VALUE OF PARTNERING WITH PAX WORLD
Pax World pioneered an investment approach known as sustainable investing – the full
integration of rigorous financial analysis with equally rigorous environmental, social and
governance (ESG) analysis. By pursuing this approach, we seek to deliver superior risk-
adjusted performance for our shareholders.
Research shows that investing in companies with strong financial and ESG
characteristics can help mitigate risk and improve return over the long-term.1 We favor
companies that:
• Meet positive standards of corporate responsibility
• Demonstrate strong management, industry leadership, and a long-term focus
• Promote gender diversity and women’s leadership
At the same time, we pursue shareholder advocacy and public policy engagement
to encourage companies to improve their ESG performance. We also seek to create
positive impact by investing in institutions and companies developing innovative
solutions to global sustainability challenges.
In our view, sustainable investing is simply a better, smarter way to invest. Through
Pax World’s distinct lineup of funds, advisors have a wide array of options to meet a
variety of client objectives, including active, smart beta, thematic, and asset allocation
strategies.
INVESTING FOR RETURNS, INVESTING FOR IMPACT

Pax World partners with financial professionals like you to deepen your relationships with
existing clients and attract prospects. Increasingly, forward-thinking and highly educated
investors view investing as a way to express their values. Approximately one in three
high-net-worth investors either owns or is interested in social impact investments.1 In
addition, studies show that women and Millennials are driven by considerations other
than financial returns. Women, for example, may be interested in investing in companies
that promote diversity and women’s advancement.2
Our areas of expertise include:
As a leader in sustainable investing, we can help financial professionals address the subject when clients and prospects show an interest.

Our Women & Wealth platform gives financial professionals access to a wide array of resources to help them better serve female clients.

An investment in the funds involves risk, including loss of principal. You should consider Pax World Funds’ investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For this and other important information, please obtain a fund prospectus by calling 800.767.1729 or visiting www.paxworld.com. Please read it carefully before investing.RISKS: Equity investments are subject to market fluctuations, a fund’s share price can fall because of weakness in the broad market, a particular industry, or specific holdings. Emerging market and international investments involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuations in currency values, differences in generally accepted accounting principles, economic or political instability in other nations or increased volatility and lower trading volume. Investments in high yield bonds generally are subjected to greater price volatility based on fluctuations in issuer and credit quality. When investing in bonds, you are subject, but not limited to, the same interest rate, inflation and credit risks associated with the underlying bonds owned by the Fund. Mortgage related securities tend to become more sensitive to interest rate changes as interest rates rise, increasing their volatility. Funds that emphasize investments in mid-size and smaller companies generally will experience greater price volatility. Investing in non-diversified funds generally will be more volatile and loss of principal could be greater than investing in more diversified funds.
