US Treasury bans ESG funds in Trump Accounts to focus on low-cost, broad market investments for kids.

The US Treasury has introduced new rules for Trump Accounts, investment programs for children, that exclude ESG (environmental, social, governance) funds. The goal is to ensure investment options focus on low fees, broad market performance, and long-term financial returns rather than political or ideological agendas. Since its launch on July 4, over 7 million families have signed up, with more than 2 million children eligible for a $1,000 government seed fund. Philanthropic contributions, including a $6.25 billion donation from Michael and Susan Dell, have further boosted these accounts.
