Q&A with the IIA and Qontigo: ESG indices need to balance regulatory needs, investment objectives through customized solutions
Rick Redding of the Index Industry Association (IIA) and Qontigo’s Arun Singhal discuss what role indices will play in an asset-management industry increasingly veering towards sustainability considerations in the portfolio-construction process.
Qontigo’s global index provider STOXX Ltd. has announced an unscheduled adjustment to the MDAX index. The free float of Hella GmbH & Co KGaA changed by more than 10 percentage points.
Sustainability indices and analytics are crucial catalysts for investors to transition from ‘brown’ to ‘green’ portfolios. However, the shift is being hindered, among other things, by inconsistent national legislations and lack of proper ESG disclosures from companies. Regulators have a key role to play to overcome these obstacles.
Effective 29 October 2021, Deutsche Wohnen SE will be deleted from the DAX due to the takeover by Vonovia SE. The minimum free float of ten percent is no longer met (section 4.1.1.1 in the Guide to the DAX Equity Indices).
Qontigo’s global index provider STOXX Ltd. has announced an unscheduled change to the DAX index.
The STOXX Global 1800 Index falls 4% in month when measured in dollars and including dividends. The US Federal Reserve indicates it may raise interest rates as early as next year amid signs that a spike in inflation could last longer than previously thought. US and European stocks drop in the month, led by Momentum, basic-resources and high-dividend shares.
Stocks posted their first monthly decline since January during September as rising prices from food to energy stoked concerns that central banks may have to raise interest rates just as an economic recovery is losing steam.
Qontigo has licensed four Vietnam-focused indices to Korea Investment & Securities as underlyings for Exchange Traded Notes.
A Qontigo analysis shows that the DAX enlargement contributed to the German benchmark’s diversification, decrease in concentration, stability and market representation, and resulted in relatively limited changes to style exposures. In most cases, those changes were not of significant nature.
The results of the STOXX Global ESG Leaders Index’s annual review are out. Qontigo’s broadest benchmark tracking the highest ESG-scoring companies now comprises 410 constituents: 270 from Europe, 79 from North America and 61 from Asia/Pacific.
