Summary
The STOXX World Equity Factor ESG Low Carbon Target Index is designed to enhance exposure to a multi-factor alpha signal—comprising Momentum, Quality, Value, Low Volatility, and Size—while maintaining close alignment with its parent index, the STOXX Developed World Index. The index uses Sustainalytics and ISS ESG data, excludes companies involved in controversial activities - such as weapons, tobacco, and thermal coal - and through an optimization process improves ESG performance relative to the parent index and targets a minimum 50% reduction in Scope 1+2 greenhouse gas intensity. The methodology balances factor exposure, diversification, and liquidity constraints.
Index Guides, Benchmark statement, and other reports are available under the Data tab.
