### Method

Index ETFs whose own prospectus names the S&P 500 as the index they track, lowest fee first. 4 funds qualify and every one is listed, in this order: fee, lowest first. Figures are rounded to the digit printed before they are compared with a line. Each row’s own dates are in screener.json, which holds every figure on this page and the rule that selects it. The list sorts one published figure, with no scoring or weighting. Every ETF ETFIQ covers is eligible. A fund that has closed is on no list.

### Where to next
