Letter to Shareholders |
by Joseph Keefe, President & CEO |
Dear fellow shareholders,
2020 has been a tumultuous year, and uncertainty abounds as we enter its final months. The COVID-19 pandemic continues its global march, aided and abetted in the U.S. by a disorganized government response at both the federal level and across many states. Widespread civil unrest in the wake of the killing of George Floyd has underscored the urgent need to address systemic racism and discrimination. Finally, the looming fall election may turn out to be the most divisive and chaotic in our nation’s history. Unsettling times, to say the least.
I can say that here at Impax Asset Management LLC, investment adviser to Pax World Funds, we have done our best to maintain organizational excellence, keep our spirits high and remain engaged in the community amidst all this turmoil. Despite transitioning to a work-from-home environment in mid-March, we have remained fully operational and, I must say, extremely productive. Our team adapted seamlessly and has been managing our investment portfolios without disruption. We are now beginning to partially reopen our offices, with strict protocols that make the health and safety of our staff our highest priority.
I am pleased to report that our funds held up well during a first quarter that was dominated by the dramatic sell off in stocks as the pandemic spread in February and March. While the market has rallied substantially off its March lows, our funds have continued to hold up well.
Year to date, seven of our 11 funds rank in the top 25% of their Lipper peer groups. Longer term, six of our 10 funds with three-year track records rank in the top 20% of their peer groups over three years, and five of our seven funds with five-year track records rank in the top 20% over five years. In addition, five of our funds have four- or five-star ratings from Morningstar, including our Large Cap Fund, which has both a five-star rating and a five-globe sustainability rating from Morningstar.1
We continue to apply our Sustainability Lens to all 160 subsectors of the global economy, carefully examining the risks and opportunities as we endeavor to parse
1 | As of 6/30/2020 the Pax Large Cap Fund Investor Class (PAXLX) Morningstar ratings were 5 stars out of 1230 funds overall, 5 stars out of 1,230 funds for 3 years. Pax Large Cap Fund Institutional Class (PXLIX) Morningstar ratings were 5 stars out of 1,230 funds overall, 5 stars out of 1,230 funds for 3-years. Sustainability Score for the Pax Large Cap Fund as of 3/31/2020 is 21.76. Percent Rank in Category is 5 and Sustainability Rating is 5 globes as of 5/31/2020.

out the winners from the losers. We firmly believe that our long-term focus, which includes careful analysis of environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks, has helped our funds weather market volatility during these extraordinary times.
Sustainable funds, overall, have performed well during the pandemic crisis and downturn. S&P Global reported in April that ESG funds were outperforming the S&P 500 Index,2 and The Wall Street Journal in May echoed that ESG funds outperformed non-ESG peers.3 Goldman Sachs reported in April that companies with better sustainability performance had also weathered the COVID-19 crisis better up to that point.4 This is no accident; it’s part of a track record — sustainable companies and funds that incorporate ESG analysis also tended to outperform during the Great Recession of 2008 – 2009.5
Despite the success of funds integrating a sustainability or ESG focus, in June the U.S. Department of Labor proposed a rule that seeks to discourage retirement plans from investing in them, mistakenly contending that the inclusion of ESG funds leads to lower returns and higher risk. We couldn’t disagree more strongly. In fact, we wrote a comment letter to the Employee Benefits Security Administration attesting to the financial materiality of ESG factors and arguing that it is in ignoring them, rather than incorporating them, that fiduciary duties are more likely to be breached. You can read that letter on this page: https://impaxam.com/dol/
The pandemic has highlighted how important it is for companies to invest in their workers, and as a result we have expanded our engagement efforts in this area. Individuals on the front lines of the COVID-19 response — not only the healthcare workers but the warehouse workers, grocery store workers, delivery drivers and many others — are performing essential functions, but they may not have all the protections other workers are entitled to, such as paid time off or health benefits. So, we’ll be asking companies to commit to improvements in those areas going forward.
Other important questions tied to the COVID-19 crisis include, for example, how have companies implemented furloughs? What are they doing about executive pay? How are they retooling products and services to meet the needs of this moment? We’ve written to companies in some high-risk industries — retailers,

grocery chains, healthcare businesses — to find out what they are doing now, or plan to do in the future, to build more resiliency into their businesses.
Over the longer term, we want to help companies identify structural changes that could help make them more resilient. Could they modify their sick time policies in a way that could help protect their entire workforce? Could they extend remote work arrangements to gain efficiencies and lower their carbon footprints? For all it has wrought, the pandemic has also shown what is possible, and we need to make sure this is a learning moment.
Finally, at Impax, we believe that investing in the transition to a more sustainable economy is also investing in the transition to a more just society — one that values the lives, livelihoods and talents of every single person. As we have seen during the pandemic, environmental stressors can contribute significantly to the higher mortality rate among racial minorities in the United States. We’ll soon begin asking companies that operate in areas where the surrounding demographics are disproportionately racial and ethnic minorities to take steps to curtail pollution and to report publicly on the demographics of areas in which their operations can possibly harm human health.
Knowing more about companies’ physical locations will also help us better assess the physical risks they face in connection with climate change. In June, we petitioned the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission to require companies to disclose the precise locations of their significant assets so that investors, analysts and financial markets can better assess these risks and better avoid increasingly frequent and severe weather-related shocks.
Things that make companies more sustainable tend also to make them more resilient, and we believe that companies that are more resilient are not only better positioned to weather specific crises and downturns, but more generally to mitigate the risks and seize the opportunities associated with the transition to a more sustainable global economy. This is at the core of all our work.
I hope the remainder of 2020 brings brighter days for all of us. On behalf of the entire team here at Impax, I extend our very best wishes.
Sincerely,
Joseph F. Keefe
President

The Morningstar Ratings™ shown are as of 6/30/2020. The Morningstar Rating for funds, or “star rating,” is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive five stars, the next 22.5% receive four stars, the next 35% receive three stars the next 22.5% receive two stars, and the bottom 10% receive one star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating, 40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating, 30% five-year rating, 20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns.
While the 10-year overall rating formula seems to give the most weight to the ten-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods. ©2020 Morningstar, Inc.

The Morningstar Sustainability Rating measures how well the companies in a fund’s portfolio manage their environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks and opportunities relative to the fund’s peers. First, a Morningstar Portfolio Sustainability Score™ ranging from 0 to 100 is derived from an asset weighted average of the underlying company ESG scores quarterly. Next, scored funds are rated monthly: The top 10% receive 5 globes (High), the next 22.5% receive 4 (Above Average), the next 35% receive 3 (Average), the next 22.5% receive 2 (Below Average), and the bottom 10% receive 1 (Low). Sustainalytics provides company-level analysis used in the calculation of Morningstar’s Sustainability Score. A higher score indicates that a fund, on average, has more of its assets invested in companies that score well according to the Sustainalytics methodology.

Pax Large Cap Fund |

Portfolio Manager Barbara Browning, CFA |
Portfolio Managers’ Comments |
How did the Pax Large Cap Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Institutional Class and Investor Class shares of the Fund had total returns of -1.85% and -2.00%, respectively, compared to -3.08% for the S&P 500 Index and -4.60% for the Lipper Large-Cap Core Funds Index.
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
The COVID-19 crisis, an unprecedented event for our global society, drove unprecedented moves in markets. Equity markets experienced the fastest retreat from a market high to a bear market in recent history with the S&P 500 Index selling off -34% from its peak in February to its trough in March. In the second quarter, equities rallied off lows, with the S&P 500 Index delivering a 20.5% return, largely a result of massive fiscal and monetary stimulus designed to stave off a severe recession.
The Fund’s sector allocation contributed most to this period’s outperformance, most notably the Fund’s zero weight in the Energy sector. The Fund is fossil fuel-free, which benefitted performance during the period as the Energy sector dramatically underperformed the broader market. Other sectors that contributed to performance were Real Estate and Industrials, while the Information Technology and Health Care sectors marginally detracted from the Fund’s overall relative performance.
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
We increased exposure to the Information Technology, Real Estate and Consumer Discretionary sectors during the period, while reducing exposure to the Health Care and Communication Services sectors. The Health Care sector was the Fund’s largest overweight at the beginning of the period, but after strong relative performance during the first quarter we decided to reduce exposure in some holdings.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively to performance?
T-Mobile US, Equinix, Lowe’s Companies, and Vertex Pharmaceuticals were notable contributors to performance in the first half of 2020. T-Mobile completed its merger with Sprint after a two-year approval process, allowing company management the opportunity to improve operations at Sprint and realize substantial merger synergies. Equinix is beneficiary of the rapid digital transformation taking place at an accelerated pace during the current pandemic environment. Lowe’s has benefitted from strong interest in home improvement as well as a population migration from cities to suburbs in the wake of COVID-19. Vertex successfully executed the launch of its triple-combination cystic fibrosis drug Trikafta in the U.S. during the period.
What portfolio holdings detracted from performance?
Notably weak holdings were ViacomCBS and American International Group (AIG). ViacomCBS’ merger got off to a rocky start as many high-profile events that were expected to drive advertising dollars in the period were cancelled due to COVID-19. AIG withdrew its return on equity (ROE) guidance due to the adverse effect of lower interest rates and COVID-19 claims exposure.

Pax Small Cap Fund |
|
Portfolio Manager Nathan Moser, CFA |
Portfolio Manager’s Comments |
How did the Pax Small Cap Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Investor Class, Class A and Institutional Class shares of the Fund had total returns of -14.52%, -14.56% and -14.44%, respectively, compared to -12.98% for the Russell 2000 Index and -17.10% for the Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index.
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
The COVID-19 crisis, an unprecedented event for our global society, drove unprecedented moves in markets. Equity markets experienced the fastest retreat from a market high to a bear market in recent history with the S&P 500 Index selling off -34% from its peak in February to its trough in March. In the second quarter, equities rallied off lows, with the S&P 500 Index delivering a 20.5% return, largely a result of massive fiscal and monetary stimulus designed to stave off a severe recession. Small cap companies were even stronger, as the Russell 2000 Index returned 25.4% in the second quarter.
The Fund had strong stock selection in the Technology and Real Estate sectors. This was offset by poor selection within the Financials and Industrials sectors. Allocation was a positive contributor due to the Fund’s cash holdings and lack of exposure to the Energy sector, which lagged during the period.
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
Over the course of the period, we continued to shift toward sectors and companies that we believe are well positioned to benefit in an uncertain economic environment. Specifically, we increased the Fund’s exposure to Technology and Health Care, while reducing exposure to Consumer Discretionary. We also have no exposure to Energy and Materials, finding those sectors unattractive.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively to performance?
Livongo Health, a healthcare information technology company, increased 202% for the period the Fund owned shares. The company offers solutions for chronic diseases and, through remote patient monitoring, helps improve care and lower

overall healthcare costs. The company’s initial focus has been diabetes and it is adding other disease states, including hypertension, pre-diabetes and behavioral health. Late in the period, the Fund exited its position based largely on our concerns about valuation.
Fastly Inc., a technology company focused on improving networks, increased 324% during the period. The company provides technology infrastructure that helps networks handle higher data needs. Fastly benefitted from the “stay at home” economy due to COVID-19 and we remain positive about this holding, just less so at current valuation levels. Accordingly, we sold our remaining ownership late in the period.
What portfolio holdings detracted from performance?
The mandated shutdowns during the period negatively impacted our bank holdings. Small, local businesses were severely impacted and are the primary customers of community banks. Our positions in HomeTrust Bancshares and Meridian Bancorp declined more than 40% each as investors grew concerned with the potential for loan losses. While we believe there will be credit losses, we view the declines as an overreaction and the bank’s valuations as attractive. During the period we reduced the Fund’s other bank holdings, which tipped the Fund’s exposure from an industry overweight to underweight relative to the benchmark.

How did the Pax ESG Beta Quality Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the ESG Beta Quality Fund Investor Class, Class A, and Institutional Class shares had total returns of -5.23%, -5.25% and -5.14%, respectively, compared to -2.81% for the Russell 1000 Index and -3.46% for the Lipper Multi-Cap Core Funds Index.
The COVID-19 crisis, an unprecedented event for our global society, drove unprecedented moves in markets. Equity markets experienced the fastest retreat from a market high to a bear market in recent history with the S&P 500 Index selling off -34% from its peak in February to its trough in March.

What factors contributed positively to performance?
The Fund’s exposure to companies with higher profitability, a traditional quality factor, contributed to relative performance for the period.
As part of the Fund’s proprietary SmartCarbonTM approach, there is no fossil fuel exposure in the portfolio, which benefited performance as the Energy sector lagged due to an increasingly weak outlook for global oil demand.
The Fund overweights its portfolio toward companies with ESG strength. During the period, this overweight to ESG leaders and accompanying underweight to companies with weaker ESG profiles had a positive impact on performance.

Pax ESG Beta Quality Fund, continued |
What factors detracted from performance?
The tilt toward value stocks, as measured by earnings yield, was a detractor as value continues to underperform. A tilt towards companies with lower volatility (i.e., low beta) detracted from relative performance for the period.
An overweight to the Consumer Discretionary sector, which is driven by the factor and ESG tilts, detracted from relative returns as widespread shutdowns and economic uncertainty weighed heavily on hotels, restaurants, and retailers.

What factors detracted from performance?
The tilt towards companies with higher dividend yields had a negative impact on returns as investors seemed to favor higher growth companies (with low dividend payouts) over more stable, dividend-paying companies.
The Fund’s exposure to companies with higher management quality, a measure of the extent of asset expansion, capital expenditure growth and share issuance growth, was a large detractor for the period. The Fund’s exposure to companies with higher earnings quality, a measure of the uncertainty around a company’s operating fundamentals, also detracted from performance.

Portfolio Manager David Winborne Sub-Adviser Impax Asset Management Ltd. |
Portfolio Managers’ Comments |
How did the Pax Global Opportunities Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Fund’s Institutional Class and Investor Class shares had total returns of -2.08% and -2.24%, respectively, compared to -6.25% for the MSCI All-Country World (Net) Index (MSCI ACWI) and 5.81% for the Lipper Global Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index.
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
Sector allocation drove performance in the first half of the year, with an overweight to Information Technology (IT) and a zero allocation to the Energy sector contributing strongly to returns. Strong stock selection within the Real Estate sector was also additive. Regionally, stock selection in North America and Europe contributed to relative outperformance.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created extremely challenging conditions around the world, and, in addition to human suffering and loss of life, the economic impact is proving to be profound. The crisis resulted in extreme market volatility during the first six months of 2020, including sharp market falls in February and March, followed by a rebound during the second quarter.
We believe the health and economic impacts of the pandemic have highlighted areas of structural weakness in the global economy, particularly in relation to sustainability and vulnerable supply chains. By contrast, they have also revealed areas of remarkable resilience, particularly in companies supplying basic needs to the consumer. Lockdown conditions have prompted what, in our view, may turn out to be a structural shift in work patterns toward home-working, facilitated by a dramatically increased use of technology and accompanied by permanently altered patterns of consumption.

Pax Global Opportunities Fund, continued |
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
There were no major changes to overall sector or regional allocations during the period. Changes to the portfolio were made on a stock-specific basis. Portfolio managers took advantage of lower valuations, which presented several investment opportunities that emerged during the exceptional market volatility, rotating out of names in which the investment team had less conviction and into companies that, in the investment team’s view, have a more attractive outlook.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively to performance relative to the MSCI ACWI?
The Information Technology sector led performance over the period, as the global pandemic accelerated technological investments including the shift to cloud computing. Cloud service providers have been able to provide and manage the digital infrastructure enabling companies and organizations to function with new remote working patterns. Microsoft Corporation (Systems Software, U.S.) reported strong quarterly results reflecting the resilience of enterprise IT spending. Cadence Design Systems (Application Software, U.S.) also released good results, indicating the resilience in demand for semiconductor design software. We believe spending is linked to customers’ research and development efforts to design chips for the digital world rather than shorter-term sales trends.
Social distancing, self-isolation and the shift in work patterns toward remote working saw a surge in internet and data usage globally. Companies addressing these challenges and supporting the expansion of internet usage delivered positive performance. Equinix (Specialized Real Estate Investment Trust, U.S.), a leading urban data center provider with a strong focus on sustainability, was one such example.
The Health Care sector performed well over the period, with portfolio holding Lonza (Life Sciences Tools & Services, Switzerland) a strong contributor to performance. The company benefitted from its defensive contract drug manufacturing business model and from news of its involvement in the development of COVID-19 therapies and vaccines.
What portfolio holdings detracted from performance relative to the MSCI ACWI?
In line with the broader market, the Fund’s Financials exposure underperformed. UK Property & Casualty Insurance companies Hiscox and Beazley were both impacted by stock-specific weakness. Hiscox fell on concerns that it may need
to make business interruption payments to small- and medium-sized enterprise customers in the wake of lockdowns and social distancing measures in the UK and the U.S. The company believes that its policies exclude closures linked to the pandemic. Beazley underperformed as it raised capital to strengthen its solvency position to enable it to take advantage of new growth opportunities and rising P&C insurance prices triggered by COVID-19-related losses and the withdrawal of capital from the insurance markets.
Indian Financials stocks Bandhan Bank (Regional Banks) and HFDC Bank (Diversified Banks) underperformed on concerns about the impact of the strict Indian lockdown measures on economic growth and asset quality.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments |
How did the Pax Global Environmental Markets Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Investor Class, Class A, and Institutional Class shares of the Fund had total returns of -4.36%, -4.37%, and -4.28%, respectively, versus -6.25% for the MSCI All-Country World (Net) Index (MSCI ACWI) and -2.58% for the FTSE Environmental Opportunities Index Series (FTSE EOAS).
The Fund began the year slightly lagging the MSCI ACWI benchmark after solid performance in 2019, but the Fund has outperformed its benchmark since the pandemic crisis began in mid-February and for the period as a whole.
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
Positive stock selection and a rebound in share prices in more cyclically sensitive sectors following the March downdraft drove performance. Regionally, the portfolio’s European exposure delivered the strongest contributions. Several attractive investment opportunities emerged during the exceptional market volatility in February and March, and the adjustments made to the portfolio have proven advantageous year-to-date.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created extremely challenging conditions around the world, and in addition to human suffering and loss of life, the economic impact is proving to be profound. The crisis resulted in extreme market volatility during the first six months of 2020, including sharp market falls in February and March, followed by a rebound during the second quarter.
We believe the health and economic impacts of the pandemic have highlighted areas of structural weakness in the global economy, particularly in relation to sustainability and vulnerable supply chains. By contrast, they have also revealed areas of remarkable resilience, particularly in companies supplying basic needs
to the consumer. Lockdown conditions have prompted what may turn out to be a structural shift in work patterns toward home-working, facilitated by a dramatically increased use of technology, and accompanied by permanently altered patterns of consumption.
Governments have reacted to the pandemic with stimulus packages, many of which have included specific pledges toward environmental considerations as the impact of lockdowns has been apparent in pollution levels around the world.
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
Trading activity was elevated during the first half of the year as several attractive investment opportunities emerged during the exceptional market volatility, coupled with a smaller rotation into more defensive areas of the investment universe. The Fund aims to benefit from opportunities that are emerging in several high-quality long-term investments where valuation has become more attractive amid what has at times been an indiscriminate market drawdown.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively to performance relative to the MSCI ACWI?
Technology holdings, particularly within the Industrial Energy Efficiency subsector, led returns and, in our view, are well-positioned to capture the growing importance of digital infrastructure, remote solutions, related cloud and data capacity and differentiated tools for semiconductor production. Autodesk (Buildings Energy Efficiency, U.S.) benefitted from a general recovery in design software markets, underpinned by solid results and a better-than-expected outlook. An “investor day” also provided greater clarity about the company’s growth profile. More broadly, we believe the company continues to benefit from the accelerating trend toward cloud-based offerings to allow customers the flexibility to work remotely. Trimble (Sustainable & Efficient Agriculture, U.S.), announced better-than-expected results during the period, which showed recurring revenues and clear articulation of both liquidity and balance sheet strength. Trimble is a market-leading pioneer in GPS data collection and manipulation for sustainable agriculture, irrigation and engineering applications.

Pax Global Environmental Markets Fund, continued |
What portfolio holdings detracted from performance relative to the MSCI ACWI?
Market concerns about specific instances of higher leverage, or management teams lowering or removing guidance due to the COVID-19 disruption, weighed on performance. Welbilt (Sustainable & Efficient Agriculture, U.S.) was one such example, with investors seemingly concerned about the company’s debt covenants. The widespread closures of restaurants and other food service outlets also impacted Welbilt, which has exposure to food service end-markets.
Rail and public transport-related holdings suffered during the period, as passengers became wary of the risk of COVID-19 infection. Zhuzhou CRRC Times Electric (Transport Energy Efficiency, China), a leading manufacturer of rail electronic control equipment, suffered from these concerns and as a result of low visibility on new orders from China Rail Corporation. The Chinese government is still formulating its rail infrastructure investment plans.

Pax Ellevate Global Women’s Leadership Fund |
|
Portfolio Manager Barbara Browning, CFA |

Portfolio Manager Scott LaBreche Pax Ellevate Management LLC |
Portfolio Managers’ Comments |
How did the Pax Ellevate Global Women’s Leadership Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Investor and Institutional Class shares had total returns of -5.70% and -5.60%, respectively, compared to -5.16% for the Impax Global Women’s Leadership Index (Women’s Index), -5.77% for the MSCI World (Net) Index (World Index) and -7.86% for the Lipper Global Multi-Cap Core Funds Index.
During the first half of the year, COVID-19 fears contributed to the highly elevated market volatility. Global equity markets, as measured by the World Index, declined by -21.1% in the first quarter before rebounding by 19.36% in the second quarter, nearly offsetting losses in the first three months of the year. Within these extreme conditions, the Fund outperformed the World Index, demonstrating the Fund’s resilience in both declining and advancing markets.
During the period, the Fund crossed the six-year milestone since adopting its current strategy in June of 2014. The Fund has outperformed the World Index for the three-year, five-year and since reorganization (06/04/14) periods ended June 30, 2020. Specifically, over the six-year period ended June 30, 2020, the Fund’s Institutional Class shares and Investor Class shares have returned 6.64% and 6.38%, respectively, versus the World Index return of 6.17%. The Fund’s overweight to the highest-rated quartile of companies within the World Index based on gender-diverse leadership has made the greatest contribution to the Fund’s relative outperformance, along with the Fund’s significant underweight to the bottom two quartiles of companies with less gender-diverse leadership.
What is the investment objective of the Fund?
The Fund seeks investment returns that closely correspond to or exceed the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Women’s Index. The Fund pursues a systematic strategy, investing in the companies comprising the Women’s Index, the first index of the highest-rated companies in the world for gender-diverse leadership, as rated by Impax Gender Analytics.1
The Fund overweights its portfolio toward Women’s Index companies with greater representation of women on boards and in senior management. Women hold 39% of the board seats and 32% of senior management positions in companies in the Fund, compared to 28% and 20%, respectively, within the World Index. In addition, 95% of companies in the Fund have three or more women on the board and 100% have two or more women on the board, compared with 52% and 75%, respectively, for companies in the World Index. 36% of companies in the Fund have a woman CEO or CFO, compared with 17% of companies in the World Index.
What contributed positively and negatively to performance?
The Fund’s zero allocation to energy and weapons companies and its underweight to REITs helped relative performance. In addition, the Fund’s high quality and low risk orientation, which we believe is a consistent byproduct of its gender leadership focus, also added to relative performance during the period.
On a sector basis, several selections and an underweight allocation to Materials added to relative performance. In addition, the Fund’s Information Technology holdings produced strong relative results during the period, which was the best performing sector in the World Index2 during the period. However, not owning Apple due to its lower gender leadership profile detracted from performance, offsetting most of the positive relative results for this sector.
Detractors during the six-month period include overweight allocations to the Financials, Consumer Staples and Utilities sectors. In addition, Consumer Discretionary holdings hurt relative performance, led by poor results from Capri, Ulta Beauty and Macy’s, which overshadowed the strong results from Lululemon, Best Buy and Lowe’s. Also within this sector, having no allocation to strong performers Amazon and Tesla, which fail to meet the Fund’s gender leadership criteria, detracted from performance.
On a regional basis, the Fund’s Europe and Pacific holdings added the most to relative performance during the period, while holdings in North America detracted. Notably, the Fund’s significant underweight to Japan — no Japanese companies meet the Fund’s gender leadership criteria — added to relative performance.

Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund |
|
Portfolio Manager Scott LaBreche |
Portfolio Manager’s Comments |
How did the Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Institutional Class and Investor Class shares had total returns of -8.01% and -8.16%, respectively, compared to -8.84% for the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders (Net) Index (the Index) and -11.34% for the MSCI EAFE (Net) Index (EAFE Index), and -14.91% for the Lipper International Large-Cap Core Funds Index.
During the first half of the year, COVID-19 fears contributed to the highly elevated market volatility. International developed equity markets, as measured by the EAFE Index, declined by -22.83% in the first quarter before rebounding by 14.88% in the second quarter, nearly offsetting losses in the first three months of the year. Within these extreme conditions, the Fund outperformed the EAFE Index, demonstrating the Fund’s resilience in both declining and advancing markets.
During the period, the Fund crossed its nine-year since inception milestone. The Fund has outperformed the EAFE Index over the 1-, 3-, 5-year and since inception periods ending June 30, 2020. Specifically, over its since inception period (9 years and 5 months, ended June 30, 2020), the Fund’s Institutional Class shares and Investor Class shares have returned 3.92% and 3.65%, respectively, versus the EAFE Index return of 3.30%. We believe that this result, combined with the Fund’s lower volatility, demonstrates that focusing on the highest-rated ESG companies in international developed markets over the long term can provide investors improved return with reduced risk.1
In addition, the Fund has produced strong results compared with peers. The Institutional Class shares of the Fund (PXNIX) have posted a top 9% ranking (out of 73 funds) over the five-year period and a top 11% ranking (out of 68 funds) since inception for the period ended June 30, 2020, based on average annual returns within the Lipper International Large-Cap Core classification.2
What is the investment objective of the Fund?
The Fund is designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund and the Index are constructed to have a better ESG profile than the EAFE Index, and the Fund’s holdings averaged an overall score of 7.98 on MSCI ESG Research’s 0 to
June 30, 2020 |

10 scale compared to an overall score of 6.88 for the EAFE Index as of June 30, 2020.3 Long term, the Fund seeks to generate better risk-adjusted performance than the EAFE Index through its ESG focus.
The Fund is fossil fuel-free and integrates our proprietary SmartCarbon™ approach into the investment process. This risk-based process manages exposure to companies with fossil fuel reserves on their balance sheets, replacing energy4 company holdings with a diversified basket of energy efficiency stocks while maintaining the integrity of the investment process and minimizing change in tracking error. The SmartCarbonTM approach helps reduce the Fund’s carbon intensity,5 which is 28% lower than the EAFE Index.
What contributed positively and negatively to performance?
The Fund’s ESG focus added to relative performance versus the EAFE Index during the period, particularly its overweight allocation to the highest-rated ESG companies.
In addition, the Fund’s proprietary SmartCarbonTM approach contributed to relative performance. Both aspects of this approach, an overweight exposure toward energy efficiency companies and no exposure to the Energy sector, helped performance.
From a sector perspective, seven of the 11 sectors added relative return during the second quarter. Holdings in Industrials added to relative return during the period, along with avoidance of companies involved in the manufacturing or sale of weapons. In addition, the Financials sector helped the Fund’s relative performance, driven by holdings in Banks.
Also adding to relative return during the period were Fund holdings within the Information Technology sector, led by strong results from four companies providing energy efficiency solutions.
Conversely, portfolio holdings in the Communication Services and Consumer Discretionary sectors detracted the most during the period, led by poor results from companies within the Diversified Telecommunication Services and Textiles Apparel and Luxury Goods industries, along with an underweight allocation to Internet and Direct Marketing, which had strong returns during the period.
Footnotes:
1 | Reduced risk is measured by standard deviation. PXNIX since inception standard deviation is 13.99 compared to 14.46 for the EAFE. |
2 | Data shown represents rankings for the Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund - Institutional Class (PXNIX) in the Lipper International Large-Cap Core category based on average annual returns.

1 | The Fund’s inception date is January 27, 2011. On March 31, 2014, Pax World International Fund and Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Index ETF merged into the Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund (the Fund), a passively managed index fund which seeks investment returns that closely correspond to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index. Based on the similarity of the Fund to Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Index ETF, Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Index ETF (the Predecessor Fund) is treated as the survivor of the mergers for accounting and performance reporting purposes. Accordingly, all performance and other information shown for the Fund for periods prior to March 31, 2014 is that of the Predecessor Fund.

Pax Core Bond Fund |

Portfolio Manager Anthony Trzcinka, CFA |
Portfolio Manager’s Comments |
How did the Pax Core Bond Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Institutional Class and Investor Class shares of the Fund had total returns of 5.73% and 5.60%, respectively, compared to 6.14% for the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and 5.75% for the Lipper Core Bond Funds Index.
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
Performance of the Fund’s corporate bond positions was a positive contributor during the period. The Fund’s defensive positioning within corporate bonds helped as interest rates increased and credit spreads widened due to the COVID-19 shutdown.
Conversely, the Fund’s securitized positions detracted from performance, specifically asset backed securities (ABS). In general, these securities are less liquid and underperformed during the volatility of the first quarter. Relative performance of ABS improved in the second quarter as markets recovered and liquidity improved, but not enough to completely offset underperformance earlier in the year.
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
Following the market volatility and sell-off during March, we decided to add more to the Fund’s corporate bond exposure. We made this portfolio adjustment with the view that credit spreads were bottoming and that Federal Reserve intervention would benefit corporate credits. Generally, we believe the portfolio’s more defensive positioning performs well in down markets, but we wanted to improve the potential for the Fund to participate when markets recovered.
The Fund continues to add impact holdings, which at the end of June 2020 total 38% of the portfolio. The impact bond market continues to expand and we expect to grow this allocation in the Fund’s portfolio moving forward. In an interesting and positive development, the issuance of social bonds, and of COVID-19 bonds in particular, has blossomed. We have participated in three of such COVID-19
bonds. The proceeds from these bonds are used for personal protection equipment, non-profit hospitals treating COVID-19 patients and non-profits and businesses impacted by the shutdown.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively to performance?
Corporate bonds contributed to performance, particularly long-dated bonds including Visa and NSTAR Electric. Defensive bonds including Microsoft and Salesforce.com also performed well for the Fund. Additionally, the Fund is fossil fuel-free and does not own energy companies, which helped mitigate some of the risk in troubled areas and securities of the sector such as Occidental Petroleum, which is a large constituent in the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index that underperformed.
What portfolio holdings detracted from performance?
The Fund’s largest detractors were ABS and corporate bonds in cyclically sensitive sectors. Hilton and Marriot were two of our biggest corporate bond detractors that were negatively affected by the economic shutdown.

Pax High Yield Bond Fund |

Portfolio Managers’ Comments |
How did the Pax High Yield Bond Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Investor Class, Class A, and Institutional Class shares of the Fund had total returns of -1.66%, -1.50%, and -1.40%, respectively, compared to -3.57% for the ICE BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield—Cash Pay—BB-B (Constrained 2%) Index (the Index) and -6.34% for the Lipper High Yield Bond Funds Index.
The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Index returned 6.14% in the first half of 2020. The advent of the COVID-19 crisis drove a flight to quality in the first quarter but corporate spreads widened significantly as credit concerns deepened, negatively impacting the returns of corporate bonds, especially high yield bonds. In the second quarter, corporate bonds recovered as spreads contracted due to Federal Reserve measures that eased risks related to corporate debt.
The Fund’s outperformance during this volatile period was consistent with expectations due to our positioning in what we believe to be higher quality companies with more durable business models. During this period of heightened economic uncertainty, a meaningful contributor to the Fund’s outperformance was minimizing exposure to sectors with greater sustainability-related risks.
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
The Fund’s performance was driven by strong credit selection across a wide variety of sectors. Sectors with the strongest contributions were Services, Basic Industry, Healthcare and Energy. From an allocation standpoint, an underweight to the Energy sector also contributed meaningfully. Modestly offsetting this strong performance were selection within Telecommunications and underweight allocations to both the Technology and Telecommunications sectors.
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
During the first half of 2020, the Fund increased its exposure to the Technology, Basic Materials, Healthcare and Telecommunications sectors. In our view these sectors have strong opportunities and manageable risks relating to the transition to a more sustainable economy. The Fund decreased its exposure to the Energy and Retail sectors, both of which face materials risks and limited opportunities in our view.
By rating, the Fund’s exposure to BB-rated bonds has been stable but has decreased relative to the Index due to a growing number of “Fallen Angels” (former investment grade-rated companies) which entered the high yield benchmarks. Our BBB-rated exposure has grown to 10% at period ending June 30, 2020 (versus 7.5% as of December 31, 2019) as a result of upgrades and some opportunistic purchases of investment grade companies during the volatile period. The Fund’s CCC-rated exposure also increased to 8.8% as we opportunistically added to some favored high conviction companies.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively to performance?
Endo International, a generic pharmaceutical company, contributed to performance due to improved quarterly results and a debt exchange offer which extended a number of near-term maturities.
Charter Communications, a large cable TV and broadband service provider, performed very well in the period given its strong financial position and more defensive business model. This a meaningful core position for the Fund and large overweight.
DCP Midstream, a natural gas focused pipeline operator, recovered strongly after the March sell off and the Fund benefited from a timely addition to our position.
What portfolio holdings detracted from performance?
Oasis Petroleum, a Bakken shale-based exploration and production company, detracted from performance due to the extreme downside volatility in oil prices. We exited the position during the period.
Bombardier, a manufacturer of trains and aircraft, performed poorly due to concerns about their ability to re-finance near-term maturities. We have maintained the position as we believe they can execute several announced divestitures to help the company reduce their debt load substantially.
June 30, 2020 |
Pax High Yield Bond Fund, continued |
Party City, a retailer, has been under pressure operationally and faces headwinds in the rapidly evolving landscape for brick and mortar-based companies. We exited the position as it became clear that the company would need to reduce their debt load.

How did the Pax Sustainable Allocation Fund (the Fund) perform for the period?
The Investor Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund had total returns of 0.77% and 0.87%, respectively, compared to -3.08% for the S&P 500 Index, 0.98% for the 60% S&P 500 Index / 40% Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index blend (the Blended Index) and -3.58% for the Morningstar Allocation--50% to 70% Equity category average.
Relative to peers in the Morningstar Allocation--50% to 70% Equity category, the Fund ranks in the top 15th and 16th percentile for the 3- and 5-year periods, respectively, ended June 30, 2020.1
What factors contributed to the Fund’s performance?
The COVID-19 crisis, an unprecedented event for our global society, drove unprecedented moves in markets. Equity markets experienced the fastest retreat from a market high to a bear market in recent history with the S&P 500 Index selling off -34% from its peak in February to its trough in March. In the first quarter, bonds were the only major asset class to deliver a positive return, driven by the strong performance of U.S. Treasuries as interest rates dropped dramatically in a flight to quality. In the second quarter, equities rallied off lows, with the S&P 500 Index delivering a 20.5% return, largely a result of massive fiscal and monetary stimulus designed to stave off a severe recession.
After benefitting relative to peers from an underweight to equities during the first quarter sell off, the Fund’s rebalancing discipline replenished the equity allocation as equity markets troughed, helping the Fund better participate in the second quarter equity market rally.
June 30, 2020 |
Pax Sustainable Allocation Fund, continued |
With the MSCI EAFE Index underperforming the S&P 500 Index by more than 8%, the Fund’s non-U.S. equity allocation was a headwind for performance relative to the Blended Index, which contains only U.S. exposure. However, the modest underweight position to non-U.S. stocks relative to peers contributed positively to the Fund’s strong performance relative to the Morningstar Allocation--50% to 70% Equity category average.
As discussed in detail below, performance of the underlying funds in aggregate was a positive contributor.
Can you discuss any significant changes to the Fund’s positioning throughout the period?
The impressive rebound in equity markets has, in our view, resulted in stretched equity valuations that are pricing in a V-shaped recovery for the economy. While we believe the economy should continue to benefit from the impact of the unprecedented stimulus efforts, the direction of the economy and the equity market will largely follow the course of the virus. Markets also will be closely monitoring progress on a vaccine and therapeutic treatments. Given uncertainty across all these implications of the virus, we anticipate volatility to continue.
In such an environment, we remain vigilant in assuring the Fund’s asset allocation reflects its risk parameters. While equity valuations are stretched, we also view bonds as unattractive with interest rates that remain near historic lows, and spreads that have contracted off highs. In such an environment, we are managing the equity allocation near its 60% neutral weight, with a modest underweight to fixed income and a modest allocation to cash.
While Energy had less than 0.50% weight in the Fund, after selling the Pax High Yield Bond Fund earlier this year, the Fund is now exclusively invested in fossil fuel-free funds and has no weight in the traditional Energy sector.
What portfolio holdings contributed positively and negatively to performance?
The Pax Large Cap Fund, which represents the largest equity allocation, was a strong contributor to the Fund’s performance, as it outperformed the S&P 500 Index by 1.2% during the period. The Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund was another contributor and we believe its outperformance of the MSCI EAFE Index was aided by our SmartCarbonTM approach. This integrated approach to managing climate risk removes Energy sector exposure and replaces the weight with companies providing energy efficiency solutions which we believe are better
positioned as we transition to a low carbon economy. The Pax Small Cap Fund and Pax Core Bond Fund modestly detracted from performance as they trailed their respective benchmarks.

Sustainable Investing Update (Unaudited) |

Senior Vice President for Sustainable Investing Julie Gorte, Ph.D. |
Every moment in time is unique, but the last six months have felt a lot more like a parallel universe than most other half years any of us can remember. Moreover, we believe there has never been a time when it was more clear that sustainability is the only reasonable way forward.
We are experiencing a global pandemic that has, as this letter is being written, killed more than half a million people worldwide, including more than 150,000 in the United States. Other pandemics have had higher mortality but often over periods of years; COVID-19 has done its damage in less than a year, so far, and we expect that the final death toll will be much higher.
Unrest over racial injustice, discrimination and police brutality has been expressed across more than a thousand protests, and such protests continue, not only in the U.S. but globally. To some, this feels like a tipping point in a centuries-long struggle for equality and justice. That remains to be seen.
We’re also in the midst of a climate crisis whose impact worsens every year and will continue to worsen until we stop adding greenhouse gases to our atmosphere. The COVID-19 pandemic, and our responses to it, resulted in an estimated 4.8% contraction on GDP (“Gross Domestic Product”) during the first quarter of 2020. By comparison, climate change could diminish global GDP by 3% every year by 2050 and could reduce global GDP per capita by more than 7% annually by 2100 if we fail to get global emissions to zero by 2050.
The world will find a new normal in all this, and we believe investors can have a say in what that new normal will look like. It could be more perilous and chaotic and marked by increasingly distressing crises, like the ones we’re experiencing now; or we could figure out how to operate more sustainably and avoid so many crises.
All of these crises are joined at the hip with sustainability. COVID-19 is a zoonotic disease, like many other viruses including SARS, MERS, Ebola, Lyme disease, West Nile virus and influenza. The chances for such diseases to jump from their animal hosts to humans is greatly increased by human-caused habitat loss. The more we encroach on animal habitats, the more likely it is that we will maximize our exposure to zoonotic viruses such as COVID-19. That, of course, is only one of the dire economic and health-related consequences of biodiversity loss.
COVID-19 itself has been a crisis for human resources, resulting in millions of lost jobs as well as heightened exposure to the illness itself for first responders and frontline workers in healthcare, staples, essential services and retailing. Many of these workers are on the lower rungs of corporate ladders, and some lack access to benefits like health insurance and paid time off. How companies care for those essential frontline workers during the pandemic not only says a lot about their commitments to their workforces but about their resiliency as businesses. Companies that were already good at human capital management, especially with respect to health, safety and flexible working arrangements, have weathered the pandemic better.
Strong human resource performance was also a strength during the 2008-2009 financial crisis; Great Place to Work found that companies with high ratings for diversity and inclusion outperformed the S&P 500 during and after the Great Recession. Creating inclusive cultures for people of color and women turns out, unsurprisingly to us, to make good sense ethically and financially. Companies that have been fairer to employees of color and women will have less mending to do, and more strength moving forward.
Meanwhile, planet Earth continues to warm, and this is creating a crisis unlike any other. It is not so much one dreadful event as it is an increasingly frequent and dreadful series of events, everything from record heat to more severe storms and flooding, droughts, wildfires, sea level rise and the spread of diseases and pests from the tropics to temperate regions. All of these events were once thought to be acts of God, but now we see the hand of man in them: It is our emissions of greenhouse gases that is creating this long-term, worsening crisis, which has already had major impacts on the economy and financial markets. In the next two decades, it could cost the U.S. more than $400 billion just to protect coastal communities — and that doesn’t include the cost of droughts, noncoastal flooding, heat waves, wildfires or any other of the myriad other impacts of climate change.
At Impax, it has long been clear to us that investing sustainably must be a core component of any coherent strategy for confronting climate change. Research has shown that climate-friendly investment strategies often show higher risk adjusted returns than respective conventional benchmarks. More carbon-efficient portfolios have also shown superior returns compared with a portfolio of less carbon-efficient firms.
What makes us more sustainable makes us more resilient. We are witnessing real-time proof of that. The dwindling ranks of investors who still think that sustainable investing is financially inferior need to rethink their assumptions. At Impax, we won’t need to because we have always understood the value of sustainability — both as the foundation of civil society and of financial competitiveness.
Sincerely,
Julie Gorte, Ph.D.

Shareholder Expense Examples (Unaudited) |
Examples As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. The examples on the next page are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each of the Funds and compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. For more information, see the relevant Fund’s prospectus or talk to your financial adviser.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period beginning on January 1, 2020 and ending on June 30, 2020.
Please note that Individual Retirement Account (IRA), Coverdell Education Savings, Roth IRA, SEP-IRA, SIMPLE IRA, and 403(b)(7) accounts are charged an annual custodial fee of fifteen dollars. If you are invested in one of these account types, you should add an additional $7.50 to the estimated expenses paid during the period.
Actual Expenses For each Fund, the first table on the next page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. For the Fund, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Examples for Comparison Purposes For each Fund, the second table on the following pages provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not each Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the second table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, our costs would have been higher.

Pax World Funds Series Trust I and Pax World Fund Series Trust III
NOTE A—Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization Pax World Funds Series Trust I (“Trust I”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), is an open-end management investment company organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on May 25, 2006. As of June 30, 2020, Trust I offered ten investment funds: Pax Large Cap Fund (the “Large Cap Fund”), Pax Small Cap Fund (the “Small Cap Fund”), Pax ESG Beta Quality Fund (the “ESG Beta Quality Fund”), Pax ESG Beta Dividend Fund (the “ESG Beta Dividend Fund”), Pax Global Opportunities Fund (the “Global Opportunities Fund”), Pax Global Environmental Markets Fund (the “Global Environmental Markets Fund”), Pax MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund (the “EAFE ESG Leaders Fund”), Pax Core Bond Fund (the “Core Bond Fund”), Pax High Yield Bond Fund (the “High Yield Bond Fund”), and Pax Sustainable Allocation Fund (the “Sustainable Allocation Fund”).
Pax World Funds Series Trust III (“Trust III”) is an open-end management investment company that was organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on December 4, 2013 and registered under the 1940 Act. Pax Ellevate Global Women’s Leadership Fund (the “Global Women’s Leadership Fund”) is a diversified series of Trust III.
These financial statements relate to all funds (each a “Fund”, collectively, the “Funds”) offered under both Trust I and Trust III (each a “Trust”, collectively, the “Trusts”).
The Large Cap Fund, ESG Beta Dividend Fund, Global Opportunities Fund, Global Women’s Leadership Fund, EAFE ESG Leaders Fund, Core Bond Fund and Sustainable Allocation Fund each offer two classes of shares—Investor Class shares and Institutional Class shares. The Small Cap Fund, ESG Beta Quality Fund, Global Environmental Markets Fund and High Yield Bond Fund each offer three classes of shares—Investor Class shares, Class A shares and Institutional Class shares. Although all share classes generally have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights, each class votes separately when required by law. Different share classes pay different distribution amounts to the extent the expenses of such classes differ, and distributions in liquidation will be proportional to the net asset value of each share class. Each share class has its own expense structure and sales charges, as applicable.
The Funds seek to avoid investing in issuers that their investment adviser has determined are involved in the manufacture or sale of weapons or manufacture of tobacco products or engage in business practices that their investment adviser determines to be sub-standard from an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) or sustainability perspective in relation to their industry, sector, asset class or universe peers.
The Large Cap Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities (such as common stocks, securities convertible into common or preferred stocks and warrants) of companies that, when purchased, have capitalizations within the range of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index as measured by market capitalization.
The Small Cap Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities (such as common stocks, securities convertible into common or preferred stocks and warrants) of companies that, when purchased, have capitalizations within the range of the Russell 2000 Index as measured by market capitalization.
The ESG Beta Quality Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, primarily in large-capitalization domestic equity securities that the Adviser believes have strong ESG profiles and that exhibit higher “quality” characteristics and reasonable valuations.
The ESG Beta Dividend Fund’s primary investment objective is income and capital appreciation. As a secondary objective and to the extent consistent with its primary investment objective, the ESG Beta Dividend Fund seeks capital preservation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities that pay dividends.
The Global Opportunities Fund’s investment objective is to seek long term growth of capital by investing in companies benefiting from the transition to a more sustainable global economy. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in companies that its Adviser or Sub-Adviser believe will benefit from the transition to a more sustainable global economy - the shift away from a depletive economy to one that preserves ecological and societal balance for the benefit of future generations. The Fund seeks to invest in companies with durable business models that are well-positioned to benefit from or avoid the risks associated with this transition. Under

normal market conditions, the Global Opportunities Fund will invest primarily in equity securities (such as common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible into common or preferred stocks) of companies located around the world, including at least 40% of its net assets in securities of companies organized or located outside the United States or doing a substantial amount of business outside the United States, including those located in emerging markets.
The Global Environmental Markets Fund’s investment objective is to seek long term growth of capital by investing in innovative companies around the world whose businesses and technologies focus on environmental markets, including alternative energy and energy efficiency; water infrastructure technologies and pollution control; environmental support services and waste management technologies; and sustainable food, agriculture and forestry. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in the foregoing companies and will invest primarily in equity securities (such as common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible into common and preferred stocks) of companies located around the world, including at least 40% of its net assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers, including those located in emerging markets.
The Global Women’s Leadership Fund’s investment objective is to seek investment returns that closely correspond to or exceed the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Impax Global Women’s Leadership Index (the “Women’s Index”), while maintaining risk characteristics that the Adviser believes are generally similar to those of the Women’s Index. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, more than 80% of its total assets in the component securities of the Women’s Index and in American depositary receipts, global depositary receipts and euro depositary receipts representing the component securities of the Women’s Index, including at least 40% of its net assets (unless market conditions are not deemed favorable, in which case the Global Women’s Leadership Fund would normally invest at least 30% of its assets) in securities of companies organized or located outside the U.S. or doing a substantial amount of business outside the U.S.
The EAFE ESG Leaders Fund’s investment objective is to seek investment returns that closely correspond to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal circumstances, more than 80% of its total assets in the component securities of the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index and in American depositary receipts, global depositary receipts and euro depositary receipts representing the component securities of the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index.
The Core Bond Fund’s investment objective is to seek income and conservation of principal. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in bonds, which include debt obligations such as mortgage-related securities, securities issued by the United States government or its agencies and instrumentalities, municipal bonds, corporate bonds and high-impact bonds (which provide financing to support solutions to global sustainability challenges) across the spectrum of issuers, each of which is, at the time of purchase, rated at least investment grade (rated BBB- or higher by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group or Baa3 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service) or unrated and determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.
The High Yield Bond Fund’s primary investment objective is to seek high current income. As a secondary investment objective, the High Yield Bond Fund seeks capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in high-yield, fixed income securities (such as bonds, notes or debentures) that are rated below BBB- by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group or below Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, similarly rated by another major rating service, or unrated and determined by the High Yield Bond Fund’s investment adviser to be of comparable quality. These fixed income securities are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.”
The Sustainable Allocation Fund’s primary investment objective is to seek income and conservation of principal. As a secondary investment objective, the Fund seeks long-term growth of capital. The Fund uses a team approach to allocate among multiple funds managed by the Adviser (“Underlying Funds”) in order to seek to achieve its investment objectives. The Adviser will allocate the Fund’s assets among Underlying Funds in its sole discretion. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives, under normal market conditions, by investing (indirectly through the use of Underlying Funds) approximately 50%-75% of its assets in equity securities (such as common stocks, preferred stocks and securities convertible into common or preferred stocks) and 25%-50% of its assets in debt securities (including but not limited to debt securities convertible into equity securities).
Under the Trusts’ organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trusts. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trusts enter into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trusts’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims that may be made against the Trusts that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trusts expect this risk of loss to be remote.

Accounting Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds apply Investment Company accounting and reporting guidance.
Valuation of Investments For purposes of calculating the net asset value (“NAV”), determined ordinarily as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) (the “NYSE Close”) on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on each day that the NYSE is open for trading, the Funds normally use pricing data for domestic equity securities received shortly after the NYSE Close and do not normally take into account trading, clearances or settlements that take place after the NYSE Close. U.S. fixed income and non-U.S. securities are normally priced using data reflecting the earlier closing of the principal markets for those securities, subject to possible fair value adjustments. Information that becomes known to the Funds or their agents after NAV has been calculated on a particular day will not generally be used to retroactively adjust the price of a security or NAV determined earlier that day.
For the purpose of these financial statements, fair values for various types of securities and other instruments are determined on the basis of closing prices or last sales prices on an exchange or other market, or based on quotes or other market information obtained from quotation reporting systems, established market makers or pricing services. Short-term investments having a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
Investments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted to U.S. dollars using exchange rates obtained from pricing services. As a result, the NAV of a Fund’s shares may be affected by changes in the value of currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar.
If market quotations are not readily available (including in cases when available market quotations are deemed to be unreliable), the Funds’ investments will be valued as determined in good faith pursuant to policies and procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees of the Trusts (the “Boards” or “Boards of Trustees”)(so called “fair value pricing”). Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security or other asset, and fair values used to determine a Fund’s NAV may differ from quoted or published prices, or from prices that are used by others, for the same investments. Also, the use of fair value pricing may not always result in adjustments to the prices of securities or other
assets held by a Fund. The Boards have delegated to the Advisers’ Best Execution and Valuation Committee the day-to-day responsibility for making fair value pricing determinations with respect to Fund holdings.
The Funds may determine that market quotations are not readily available due to events relating to a single issuer (e.g., corporate actions or announcements) or events relating to multiple issuers (e.g., governmental actions or natural disasters). The Funds may determine the fair value of investments based on information provided by pricing services and other third-party vendors, which may recommend fair value prices or adjustments with reference to other securities, indices or assets. In considering whether fair value pricing is required and in determining fair values, the Funds may, among other things, consider significant events (which may be considered to include changes in the value of U.S. securities or securities indices) that occur after the close of the relevant market and the usual time of valuation. At June 30, 2020, three securities were fair valued in good faith pursuant to policies and procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees. The Core Bond Fund held one security fair valued at $286,933, representing 0.04% of the Fund’s net asset value and the High Yield Bond Fund held two securities fair valued at $0, representing 0.00% of the Fund’s net asset value.
For those Funds that invest in non-U.S. securities, investors should be aware that many securities markets and exchanges outside the U.S. close prior to the close of the NYSE, and the closing prices for securities in such markets or on such exchanges may not fully reflect events that occur after such close but before the close of the NYSE. As a result, the Funds’ fair value pricing procedures require the Funds to consider changes in the fair value of non-U.S. securities between the time of the closing of the local market’s exchange and the close of the NYSE. Generally, if there has been a movement in the U.S. market that exceeds a specified threshold, the Funds will assess whether the closing price on the local exchange is still appropriate. Although the threshold may be revised from time to time and the number of days on which fair value prices will be used will depend on market activity, it is possible that fair value prices will be used by the Funds to a significant extent. The value determined for an investment using the Funds’ fair value pricing procedures may differ from recent market prices for the investment.
Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
| ● Level 1 – | unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
June 30, 2020 |
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited), continued |
| ● Level 2 – | other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| ● Level 3 – | significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a general summary of valuation inputs and classifications for different categories of securities.
Equity Securities Equity securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service, are generally categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. Non-U.S. equity securities may also be valued at official close, or may be valued based on the fair value pricing procedures noted above. When third-party fair value pricing of foreign securities methods are applied, they are generally categorized as Level 2. To the extent that inputs for equity securities are unobservable, values are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Fixed Income Securities Fixed income securities, including Corporate Bonds (both investment-grade and high-yield), U.S. Treasury Obligations, Government Bonds, Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities, Bank Loans and Municipal Bonds, are valued at evaluated prices received from independent pricing services, which are evaluated using various inputs and techniques which may include trade activity, broker-dealer quotes, yield curves, coupon rates, default rates, cash flows,
models and other inputs, and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy. To the extent that inputs for fixed income securities are unobservable, values are categorized as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Affiliated and Unaffiliated Investment Companies Investments in mutual funds are valued at the Funds’ closing net asset value and are generally categorized as Level 1.
Short-term Investments Short-term securities, including repurchase agreements, with remaining maturities of 60 days or less, which are valued at amortized cost, are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Funds’ net assets as of June 30, 2020:

See Schedules of Investments for additional detailed industry classifications.
Significant unobservable inputs were used by two Funds for Level 3 fair value measurements. The High Yield Bond Fund holds two securities of the same issuer which are deemed to be valued at zero based on company financial statements,
and one security based on broker valuation levels. The Core Bond Fund holds a position in a Community Investment note which is valued based on a general obligation by the parent entity to limit investment exposure on the note.
Investment Transactions Investment transactions are recorded as of the date of purchase, sale or maturity. Net realized gains and losses from the sale or disposition of securities are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes. Corporate actions (including cash dividends) are recorded net of foreign tax withholdings.
Investment Income Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discount and amortization of premiums, if any. The value of additional securities received as dividend payments is recorded as income and as an increase to the cost basis of such securities. The Funds amortize purchase price premium and accrete discount on bonds, if any, over the remaining life of the bonds using the effective interest method of amortization; for callable bonds, the premium amortization period is to the earliest call date.
Distributions to Shareholders Distributions to shareholders are recorded by each of the Funds on the ex-dividend dates. The Funds (except Core Bond Fund and High Yield Bond Fund) expect to pay dividends of net investment income, if any, semiannually and to make distributions of capital gains, if any, at least annually.
The Core Bond Fund and High Yield Bond Fund expect to pay dividends of net investment income, if any, monthly and to make distributions of capital gains, if any, at least annually. A shareholder begins earning dividends on the Core Bond Fund and High Yield Bond Fund shares the day after the Funds receive his or her purchase payment. Income and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Class Accounting Expenses directly attributable to a class of shares, such as 12b-1 distribution fees, are charged to that class. Each Fund has adopted a 12b-1 plan, applicable to certain classes of each of the Funds. Expenses of the Funds that are directly identifiable to a specific Fund, such as transfer agent fees, custody fees and registration fees, are applied to that Fund. Expenses that are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund, such as printing expense, Trustees’ fees and legal fees, are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of the Funds. Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated based upon the relative daily net assets of each class of shares.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited), continued |
Federal Income Taxes Each of the Funds has elected to be treated and intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If a Fund so qualifies and satisfies certain distribution requirements, such Fund will ordinarily not be subject to federal income tax on its net investment income (which includes short-term capital gains) and net capital gains that it distributes to shareholders. Each Fund expects to distribute all or substantially all of its income and gains to shareholders every year. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Funds are treated as separate entities for federal income tax purposes.
Foreign Currency Transactions The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. In addition, purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses occurring during the holding period of investment securities are a component of realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, respectively.
Non-U.S. Securities Non-U.S. markets can be significantly more volatile than domestic markets, causing the prices of some Fund investments to fluctuate significantly, rapidly and unpredictably. Non-U.S. securities may be less liquid than domestic securities; consequently, a Fund may at times be unable to sell non-U.S. securities at desirable times or prices. Other risks related to non-U.S. securities include delays in the settlement of transactions; less publicly available information about issuers; different reporting, accounting and auditing standards; the effect of political, social, diplomatic or economic events; seizure, expropriation or nationalization of the issuer or its assets; fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates and the possible imposition of currency exchange controls. If a Fund invests substantially in securities of non-U.S. issuers tied economically to a particular country or geographic region, it will be subject to the risks associated with such country or geographic region to a greater extent than a fund that is more diversified across countries or geographic regions.
Securities Lending The Funds may lend their securities pursuant to a securities lending agreement (Lending Agreement) with State Street Bank and Trust Company. Initial security loans made pursuant to the Lending Agreement are required to be secured by collateral not less than the percentage specified in the agreement, ranging from 102% to 105%, depending on the types of securities. Cash collateral received is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, a registered Rule 2a-7 money market fund. Borrowers may also pledge non-cash collateral within the guidelines for acceptable forms of
non-cash collateral approved by the Boards of Trustees. At June 30, 2020, non-cash collateral consisted of U.S. Treasuries, short-term U.S. Government agency obligations and sovereign debt.
The Funds have the right under the Lending Agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand. The primary risk associated with securities lending is if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons. The Funds could experience delays and costs in recovering securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. In the event the borrower fails to return loaned securities and the collateral received is insufficient to cover the value of the loaned securities and provided such collateral shortfall is not the result of investment losses, the lending agent has agreed to pay the amount of the shortfall to the Funds, or at the discretion of the lending agent, replace the loaned securities.
A portion of the income generated upon investment of the collateral is remitted to the borrower and the remainder is allocated between the Funds and the lending agent. The Funds record security lending income net of such allocation. The Funds continue to receive dividends on the securities loaned, which are accounted for in the same manner as other dividend and interest income.
As of June 30, 2020, the value of securities loaned, payable for collateral due to brokers and non-cash collateral pledged by brokers were as follows:

Netting Agreements During the ordinary course of business, the Funds may enter into transactions subject to enforceable netting agreements or other similar arrangements (“netting agreements”). Generally, the right to offset in netting agreements allows a Fund to offset any exposure to a specific counterparty with any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreement. Generally, a Fund manages its cash collateral and securities collateral on a counterparty basis. As of June 30, 2020, there is no collateral held at the counterparty that would be offset by a master netting agreement that the Funds have with the counterparty. The Funds did not hold any derivative instruments as of June 30, 2020.

The Funds are permitted to purchase and sell securities (“cross-trade”) from and to other Funds within the Trusts or other accounts managed by the Advisers pursuant to “Cross-Trading” Procedures adopted by the Trusts’ Boards of Trustees. These procedures have been designed to ensure that any cross-trade of securities by the respective Fund from or to another Fund or account that is or could be considered an affiliate of the Fund under certain limited circumstances by virtue of having a common investment adviser complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under these procedures, each cross-trade is effected at the current market price to save costs where allowed. Pursuant to these procedures, for the period ended June 30, 2020, the Global Women’s Leadership Fund and the EAFE ESG Leaders Fund engaged in cross-trades. The Global Women’s Leadership Fund and

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited), continued |
the EAFE ESG Leaders Fund had total purchases of $766,709 and $0, respectively, and total sales of $0 and $766,709, respectively. The Global Women’s Leadership Fund and EAFE ESG Leaders Fund had net gains of $0 and $63,278, respectively.
Restricted and Illiquid Securities The Funds may purchase certain restricted securities and limited amounts of illiquid securities. The Funds may invest in securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933 (“the Act”) which are restricted from sale to the public and may only be sold to a qualified institutional buyer. The Funds do not have the right to demand that such securities be registered. The value of such securities is determined by valuations supplied by a pricing service or, if not available, in good faith by or at the direction of the Boards of Trustees. At June 30, 2020, the Core Bond Fund held $99,408,279 or 14.28% of net assets and the High Yield Bond Fund held $235,897,672 or 66.73% of net assets in securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Act.
At June 30, 2020 the Core Bond Fund held $4,805,418 of illiquid securities representing 0.69% of net assets and High Yield Bond Fund held $1,412,275 of illiquid securities, representing 0.40% of net assets. The Fund will classify as “illiquid” all securities that the Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment. Illiquid investments may include restricted securities, repurchase agreements that mature in more than seven days or that have a notice or demand feature more than seven days, certain over-the-counter option contracts and participation interests in
loans. Because illiquid securities trade less frequently and in smaller volume than liquid securities, the Fund may experience difficulty in closing out positions at prevailing market prices.

NOTE D—Tax Information
The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition to permanent differences previously noted, temporary differences may arise from recognition of certain items of income, expense, gain or loss in different periods for financial reporting and tax purposes. Such differences will reverse at some time in the future. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. For tax purposes, short-term capital gains are considered ordinary income.

The Global Opportunities Fund and Global Women’s Leadership Fund elected to defer $45,753 and $1,200,903, respectively, of capital losses recognized between November 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019 for the Funds’ fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. These losses are treated for federal income tax purposes as if they had occurred on January 1, 2020.
As of June 30, 2020, for federal income tax purposes, the following Funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future gains, if any, to the extent provided by the Treasury regulations:
| | No Expiration | |
Fund | | Short-term | | | Long-term | |
Global Environmental Markets | | $ | 1,101 | | | $ | — | |
EAFE ESG Leaders | | | 400,939 | | | | 28,727,930 | |
Core Bond | | | — | | | | 3,859,952 | |
High Yield Bond | | | 27,093,005 | | | | 43,259,094 | |
For financial reporting purposes, the capital accounts are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. Reclassifications are primarily due to tax treatment of gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions and tax treatment related to REITs and PFICs.
Uncertain Tax Positions Management has analyzed the Funds’ tax positions taken for all open tax years which remain subject to examination by the Funds’ major tax jurisdictions (years 2016 through 2019). The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of
Operations. Management has concluded that, as of and during the period ended June 30, 2020, no provision for federal income tax is necessary and, therefore, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expenses.
Note E – Other Matters
The impact of the recent COVID-19 outbreak has led, and in the future may lead, to increased short-term market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets generally. The duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects cannot be determined with certainty, and could prevent a Fund from executing advantageous investment decisions in a timely manner and negatively impact a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.
Proxy Voting (Unaudited)
You may obtain a description of the Funds’ policies and procedures that the Funds use to determine how to vote proxies relating to their portfolio securities, without charge, upon request by contacting the Funds at 800.767.1729 or on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Board Considerations for Approval of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements
Review Process. The 1940 Act requires that the Trustees of the Trusts request and evaluate, and that IAM and PEM furnish, such information as may reasonably be necessary for the Trustees of the Trusts to evaluate the terms of the relevant Trust’s Management Contracts. Similarly, the 1940 Act requires that the Trustees of Trust I request and evaluate, and that each of Impax and Aperio (each a “Subadviser” and collectively, the “Subadvisers”) furnish such information as may reasonably be necessary for the Trustees of Trust I to evaluate the terms of its respective subadvisory contract (each a “Subadvisory Contract” and collectively, the “Subadvisory Contracts”) among Trust I, IAM, and such Subadviser. The Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Trusts (the “Independent Trustees”) met in March and June of 2020 for the purpose of considering the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract (the “contract review meetings”). In addition, the Trustees of each Trust consider matters bearing on the relevant Trust and its investment management and other arrangements at their regular meetings throughout the year, including reviews of investment results and performance data at each regular meeting and periodic presentations from the Advisers and each Subadviser.
During the course of the contract review meetings, the Trustees met and discussed the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract with representatives of the Advisers. The Independent Trustees were assisted in their evaluation of the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract by independent legal counsel, from whom they received assistance and advice, including a written memorandum regarding the legal standards applicable to the consideration of advisory arrangements, and with whom they met separately from management. The Independent Trustees requested additional information, to which management responded.
In their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’ deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, or given different weights to various factors in reaching their unanimous conclusion. The Trustees’ conclusions were based, in part, on their consideration of these arrangements during the course of the year and in prior years. The Trustees evaluated the information available to them on a Fund-by-Fund basis, and their determinations were made separately in respect of each Pax Fund; however, they also took into account the common interests of all the Pax Funds in their review.
Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services. In considering the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, evaluated the nature, extent, and quality of the advisory services provided to each Trust by the relevant Adviser and, with respect to Trust I, each Subadviser. They considered the terms of the relevant Management Contract and each Subadvisory Contract, as applicable, and received and considered information provided by management that described, among other matters:
| ● | the nature and scope of the advisory services provided to the Pax Funds and information regarding the experience, qualifications, and adequacy of the personnel providing those services; |
| ● | the investment program used by each Adviser and Subadviser to manage the Pax Funds; |
| ● | possible conflicts of interest and fall-out benefits; |
| ● | the compliance functions of each Adviser and Subadviser; and |
| ● | financial results, assets under management, and other information relating to the financial resources of each Adviser. |
In addition to considering the Pax Funds’ investment performance (see below), the Trustees of each Trust considered, among other matters, the general oversight of the relevant Trust by its Adviser. They took into account information concerning the investment philosophies and processes used by the Advisers and each Subadviser in managing the Pax Funds as well as their in-house investment and sustainable research capabilities. They also considered various investment resources available to the Advisers and each Subadviser, including research services acquired with “soft dollars” available to the Advisers and each Subadviser as a result of securities transactions effected for the Pax Funds.
The Trustees considered, among other matters, that each Adviser provides the relevant Trust with office space and personnel, and provides oversight and coordination of the Pax Funds’ third-party service providers. These services include accounting, bookkeeping, tax, legal, audit, custody and transfer agency services, and preparation of prospectuses, shareholder reports and other regulatory filings. They also took into account the Advisers’ compliance and operational functions, as well as the resources being devoted by the Advisers to such functions and the Advisers’ operational response to the global pandemic.
The Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract, that the scope of the services provided to each Pax Fund under the relevant Management Contract, and to each Pax Fund by its applicable Subadviser, was consistent with such Fund’s operational requirements; that the Advisers have the capabilities, resources, and personnel necessary to provide the advisory services currently required by each Pax Fund; and that, overall, the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by the Advisers to the relevant Trust, and each applicable Subadviser to each Pax Fund, were sufficient to warrant approval of the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract.
Fund Performance. In connection with the contract review meetings, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed information prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) regarding the total return investment performance of the Pax Funds, comparing each Pax Fund’s investment results with those of other mutual funds within their Broadridge peer group over the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods (to the extent the Pax Fund had been in existence) ended March 31, 2020. The Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, considered the methodology employed by Broadridge to identify peer groups, including the extent to which such peer groups included other mutual
funds that employ sustainable or socially responsible investing practices and the extent to which the peer group pursued investment strategies similar to those of the relevant Pax Fund. The Independent Trustees considered that the Sustainable Allocation Fund had outperformed its peer group for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods. The Independent Trustees considered that the ESG Beta Quality Fund had underperformed its peer group for the one- and three-year periods, noting that because the Fund’s name and strategy changed on June 30, 2016, the Fund’s performance for periods prior to June 30, 2016 may not be representative of the performance that it would have achieved had it been following its current investment strategy. The Independent Trustees considered that the ESG Beta Dividend Fund also had underperformed its peer group for the one- and three-year periods. The Independent Trustees considered that the Small Cap Fund had outperformed its peer group for the one-year period, but had underperformed its peer group for the three-, five- and ten-year periods. The Independent Trustees considered that the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund had outperformed its peer group for the one-, three- and five-year periods. The Independent Trustees considered that the Core Bond Fund had outperformed its Broadridge peer group median for the one-year period, but had underperformed its peer group for the three-year period. The Independent Trustees considered that the Large Cap Fund had slightly outperformed its peer group for the one- and three-year periods. The Independent Trustees considered that the Global Environmental Markets Fund had underperformed its peer group for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods. The Independent Trustees considered that the Global Women’s Leadership Fund had underperformed its peer group for the one-, three- and five-year periods, noting that because the Fund’s name and strategy changed on June 4, 2014, the Fund’s performance for periods prior to June 4, 2014 may not be representative of the performance that it would have achieved had it been following its current investment strategy. The Independent Trustees considered that the High Yield Bond Fund had outperformed its peer group for the one-, three- and five-year periods, but had underperformed its peer group for the ten-year period. The Independent Trustees considered that the Global Opportunities Fund did not yet have a three-year record, but that the Fund had outperformed its peer group for the one-year period. The Independent Trustees also considered the steps taken by the Adviser to improve the performance of the Pax Funds that had underperformed their peers and/or benchmarks over longer periods.
In addition to the information reviewed by the Trustees at the contract review meetings, the Trustees receive, during the year, detailed comparative performance information for each Pax Fund including performance relative to one or more selected securities indices or other benchmarks.
Based on this and other information, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract, that the relevant performance record and process in managing each Pax Fund were sufficient to support approval of the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract.
Fees and Other Expenses. The Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, considered the advisory fees paid by each Pax Fund to the relevant Adviser, and the Trustees of Trust I, including the Independent Trustees, considered the subadvisory fees paid to each Subadviser by IAM, as well as each Pax Fund’s distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees, “other expenses” and total expenses. In doing so, the Trustees reviewed both information provided by management and information prepared by Broadridge regarding the expenses of each Pax Fund relative to those of each Pax Fund’s Broadridge peer group. The Independent Trustees considered that the total expenses of each of the Pax Funds (after giving effect to the expense reimbursements and fee reduction described below, if applicable), other than the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index, Global Environmental Markets, and Global Opportunities Funds, were at or below the median total expenses of its respective peer group. The Independent Trustees also considered that the advisory fees of all Pax Funds, other than the Small Cap, ESG Beta Quality, ESG Beta Dividend, MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index, Global Environmental Markets, Global Opportunities and Core Bond Funds (after giving effect to the expense reimbursements described below, if applicable) were at or below the median combined management and administrative fees of their peer groups.
In connection with their review, the Trustees of Trust I considered IAM’s agreement to reimburse the Global Opportunities Fund to the extent such Fund’s total operating expenses (other than interest, commissions, taxes, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) exceed a percentage of average daily net assets per annum of each share class as follows: 0.98% for Institutional Class shares and 1.23% for Investor Class shares before December 31, 2021. The Independent Trustees also noted that, under the Management Contracts with respect to the ESG Beta Quality, the ESG Beta Dividend, the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index, the Global Women’s Leadership, and the Sustainable Allocation Funds, the relevant Adviser was obligated to pay all of the operating costs and expenses of the Pax Fund (other than taxes, charges of governmental agencies, interest, brokerage commissions incurred in connection with portfolio transactions, distribution and/or service fees payable under a plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses), including accounting expenses, administrator, transfer agent, and custodian fees, legal fees and other expenses. The Trustees of Trust I considered
the expenses indirectly borne by the Sustainable Allocation Fund through its investment in other Pax Funds, and the extent to which the services provided by IAM to the Sustainable Allocation Fund were distinct from, and not duplicative of, the services it provides to such other Pax Funds. The Trustees of each Trust noted that the relevant Adviser, at the time of the contract review meetings, did not have a significant institutional advisory business outside of the Pax Funds, and considered the differences in the services provided and proposed to be provided to institutional clients and those provided to the Pax Funds, as well as differences in the advisory fees charged and proposed to be charged to such clients and those charged to the Pax Funds.
Based on this and other information, the Trustees concluded, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Management Contracts and each Subadvisory Contract, that the fees and expenses to be charged represented reasonable compensation to the Advisers and each Subadviser in light of the services provided. In coming to this conclusion, the Trustees took into account, among other factors, the reimbursement agreement described above.
Costs of Services Provided and Profitability. The Trustees of each Trust, including the Independent Trustees, reviewed information regarding the cost of services provided by each Adviser and the estimated profitability of each Adviser’s relationship with the relevant Trust, including a profitability report prepared by management detailing the costs of services provided to each Fund by the relevant Adviser, and the estimated profitability to IAM, for the year ended December 31, 2019, of its advisory relationship with each Fund, and the estimated profitability to PEM, for the year ended December 31, 2019, of its advisory relationship with the Global Women’s Leadership Fund. The Trustees recognized that each Adviser should, in the abstract, be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profit for the services provided to each Fund, and that it is difficult to make comparisons of profitability from mutual fund advisory contracts because comparative information is not generally available and is affected by numerous factors, including the structure of the particular adviser, the types of funds it manages, its business mix, numerous assumptions about cost allocations and each adviser’s capital structure and cost of capital. The Trustees of each Trust concluded that, taking all of the foregoing into account, they were satisfied that each Adviser’s level of profitability from its relationship with the relevant Trust was not excessive. The Trustees of Trust I did not consider the profitability of any Subadvisory Contract to the relevant Subadviser because the structure of each Subadvisory Contract is such that amounts paid by IAM to the applicable Subadviser reduce the profitability of IAM, and the fees
payable under each Subadvisory Contract, other than, with respect to Pax Global Opportunities Fund, the Subadvisory Contract between IAM and Impax, were the product of arm’s-length bargaining between the applicable Subadviser and IAM.
Possible Fall-Out Benefits. The Trustees of Trust I, including the Independent Trustees, considered information regarding the direct and indirect benefits to IAM and each Subadviser from their relationships with the respective Pax Funds, including reputational and other “fall out” benefits.
During the course of the year, the Trustees of Trust I received presentations from IAM about its trading practices and brokerage arrangements, including its policies with respect to research provided in connection with trade execution for the relevant Pax Funds (soft dollar arrangements), and the Trustees of Trust I accepted the representation of IAM that it fulfills its fiduciary obligation of seeking best execution when engaging in portfolio transactions for the Pax Funds. The Trustees of Trust I considered the receipt of these benefits in light of IAM’s profitability, and concluded that such benefits were not excessive.
The Trustees of Trust III, including the Independent Trustees, considered information regarding the direct and indirect benefits to PEM from its relationship with the Global Women’s Leadership Fund, including reputational and other “fall out” benefits. The Trustees of Trust III considered the receipt of these benefits in light of PEM’s profitability, and concluded that such benefits were not excessive.
Possible Economies of Scale. The Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, considered the extent to which the Advisers and each Subadviser, as applicable, may realize economies of scale or other efficiencies in managing and supporting the Pax Funds. They noted that as assets increase, certain fixed costs may be spread across a larger asset base, and it was noted that any economies of scale or other efficiencies might be realized (if at all) across a variety of products and services, including the Pax Funds, and not only in respect of a single Pax Fund. The Independent Trustees also noted that IAM had imposed breakpoints in the fee schedules of each of the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund, the Global Women’s Leadership Fund, the ESG Beta Quality Fund and the ESG Beta Dividend Fund, and had recently reduced the MSCI EAFE ESG Leaders Index Fund’s fee schedule. Based on these observations, the Independent Trustees concluded that the Pax Funds’ overall fee arrangements represent an appropriate sharing at the present time between Pax Fund shareholders and the relevant Adviser and Subadviser (where applicable) of any economies of scale or other efficiencies in the management of each Pax Fund at current asset levels.
Conclusions. Based on their evaluation of factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, the Board of Trustees of each Trust, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the continuation of the Management Contracts with respect to each Pax Fund and the continuation of the Subadvisory Contracts for the applicable Pax Funds, was in the best interests of the Pax Funds and that the Management Contracts and the Subadvisory Contracts should be approved.
