- Crossmark Steward Global Equity Income Fund (SGIDX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks current income along with growth of capital by investing primarily in U.S. and non-U.S. dividend-paying stocks demonstrating above-median yields, positive trends in dividend payouts, and alignment with the firm's values-based screening criteria; the portfolio typically allocates approximately 60% to U.S. stocks and 40% to non-U.S. stocks across large-cap value securities in the global large-stock value category, managed through a disciplined process incorporating quantitative and qualitative analysis. The fund offers Class A shares with a front-end load of 5.75%, a net expense ratio of 1.26%, and a minimum initial investment of $1,000, distributed by Crossmark Distributors, Inc. to financial intermediaries serving individual investors, religious organizations, retirement plans, foundations, and endowments in the United States. Steward Funds, including SGIDX, emphasize sustainable and values-based investing, excluding issuers involved in controversial sectors such as fossil fuels, prisons, military weapons, and deforestation while focusing on biblically responsible criteria. Managed by Crossmark Global Investments, Inc., a faith-based investment adviser founded in 1987 and headquartered at 15375 Memorial Drive, Suite 200, Houston, Texas, the fund benefits from the firm's $6.2 billion in assets under management as of late 2023 across equity, fixed income, and other strategies. Current portfolio managers include Rob Botard, CFA, who assumed responsibility on May 31, 2022, supported by the broader equity team led by experienced professionals such as CEO and CIO Bob Doll. The fund operates within the Steward Funds complex, which includes related offerings like Steward Values Enhanced International Fund (formerly Steward International Enhanced Index Fund, renamed effective July 30, 2025), Steward Covered Call Income Fund, and others, all applying proprietary positive values rankings and screens. Recent developments include portfolio manager transitions, with Rob Botard taking lead management in 2022, and ongoing enhancements to values-based strategies amid a firm leadership expansion in early 2024 when Bob Doll assumed President and CEO roles. In 2025, amendments to related Steward Funds involved name changes, such as the July 30 shift for the international fund and a May 15 elimination of a prior 80% benchmark-tied policy to enable greater flexibility in upweighting high-values-score companies relative to blended indices like the S&P Developed Markets ADR Index (85%) and S&P Emerging 50 ADR Index (15%). Additionally, two Crossmark Steward Funds received 2025 LSEG Lipper Awards, highlighting performance recognition, while the firm continues to report steady assets of around $360-450 million for SGIDX with a TTM yield of approximately 1.95%. No major acquisitions, funding rounds, or partnerships specific to SGIDX were announced in 2024-2025, reflecting stable operations focused on income generation and capital appreciation.
