The STOXX Climate Awareness Ex UN Global Compact Principles  Controversial Weapons & Tobacco indices will include companies with a CDP Performance Band A to C- (pre-2016 Performance Band A to C).  Band A and A- includes companies that are seen as leading companies in terms of climate change: these companies are disclosing particular “actions” which mark them as leaders, as well as high scores across all other levels of the CDP Scoring matrix.  Scoring requires detailed company-specific explanations.  Band B & B- includes companies that “manage” climate change: companies seek evidence of climate actions implemented and requires company-specific understanding of cli-mate change related issues.  Band C and C- identifies companies who have looked at implications of climate change for, and on, their business and recognizes a high level, contextual knowledge of environmental issues.   Companies who are in contravention of UN Global Compact Principles or are involved in Controversial Weapons activities, as identified by Sustainalytics, are excluded.  Additionally, the Coal sector (ICB Code 1771) and the Tobacco sector (ICB Code 3785) is excluded.
