Description

This ETF aims to track the performance of large and mid-capitalization companies across developed European markets. The selection process filters out companies that fail to adhere to defined ESG standards. These exclusions include entities associated with controversial weapons, those with an MSCI ESG Rating of 'CCC' or no rating, and companies generating revenue above certain thresholds from activities such as tobacco, conventional or nuclear weaponry, civilian firearms, thermal coal, unconventional/Arctic oil and gas extraction, or palm oil. Any issuer with an MSCI Controversies Score of 0 is also removed. It also targets a reduced greenhouse gas intensity relative to its underlying benchmark index. The index undergoes a quarterly review. For comprehensive information on the index, including its selection and weighting methodology, please visit msci.com.
