iSTOXX^® L&G Emerging Markets Multi-Factor

The STOXX Global ESG Leaders Select 50 Risk Control 10% Index aims to create a portfolio consisting of a mix of the underlying index – the STOXX^® Global ESG Leaders Select 50 EUR Index – and a risk-free money market investment (EONIA), whose risk fluctuates around a predefined level. The allocation between the two components is determined by the volatility of the underlying index as compared to the risk level targeted by the Risk Control index: the more the underlying index's volatility exceeds the threshold, the higher the allocation to the cash component.

The underlying index, the STOXX Global ESG Leaders Select 50 EUR Index, captures the performance of stocks with low volatility and high dividends from the STOXX^® Global ESG Leaders Index.

The STOXX Global ESG Leaders Select 50 Risk Control 10% Index utilizes a measure of volatility in realized terms. The allocation to the underlying index, which may be adjusted on a daily basis, is capped to 150%.

The STOXX Industry Leaders Low Carbon Indices represent the top industry (as defined by the ICB Industry classification) leaders with the lowest carbon emissions considering estimated and reported carbon intensity data. The indices are available for various regions and countries, including Global, Europe and USA.
