Index Description

Companies that measure their environmental risk are better equipped to mitigate those risks. Those that are transparent about it and disclose this information provide critical insights to change market behavior. The STOXX Reported Low Carbon Indices cover only stocks with available reported carbon intensity data from companies, which are publicly committed to disclose their carbon emissions. These indices cover the regions Global, Europe, Eurozone and the USA. The indices have a variable number of components, and are price weighted with a weight factor based on the free-float market cap multiplied by the corresponding Z-score carbon intensity factor of each constituent. Components with lower carbon intensities are overweighted, while those with higher carbon emission are underweighted. The indices also exlcude companies violating international norms, are involved with controversial weapons, tobacco, thermal coal, civilian firearms, military equipment, and unconventional oil and gas. STOXX uses ISS ESG as reliable and professional data sources for the estimated and reported data. Data considered comprise Scope 1 (All direct GHG emissions) and Scope 2 (Indirect GHG emissions from consumption of purchased electricity, heat or steam) emissions.

Methodology

Base universe is the STOXX Global 1800 Index; excluding companies that are non-compliant based on the ISS ESG Norms Based Screening assessment or are involved in Controversial Weapons are not eligible for selection. Additional exclusion filters are applied, screening companies for involvement in Tobacco, Thermal Coal, Unconventional Oil & Gas, Civilian Firearms, and Military Contracting.. Only those stocks with reported carbon emission data are eligible for inclusion. STOXX uses reported Carbon Intensity data ((Scope 1 + Scope 2 emission data) / Revenue in $ million) provided by ISSESG. The remaining stocks are sorted by ICB Supersector and a Z-score per supersector is calculated. Indices are price weighted with a weight factor based on the free-float market capitalization multiplied by the corresponding Z-score carbon intensity factor of each constituent. The resulting tilt overweights stocks with lower carbon intensities and underweights those with higher emissions. Individual components are subject to a 5% cap.
