The EURO STOXX 50^® ESG Index is based on the EURO STOXX 50^® Index, one of Europe’s flagship benchmarks.  A set of standardized ESG exclusion screens, based on the responsible policies of leading asset owners, are applied with the aim to reduce reputational and idiosyncratic risks. In addition to the exclusion screens, 10% of companies with the lowest ESG scores are excluded and are replaced by companies with a higher ESG score from the same ICB Supersector as the excluded companies.  

STOXX will exclude companies that Sustainalytics considers to be non-compliant with the Global Compact Principles, that are involved in controversial weapons, are tobacco producers and that either derive revenues from thermal coal extraction or exploration, or have power generation capacity that utilizes thermal coal.

The EURO STOXX 50^® ESG Index is suitable as underlying for mandates, passive funds, ETFs, structured products and listed derivatives.
