Index Description

The iSTOXX MUTB Developed Europe Paris Aligned Index is designed to help investors shift towards a low-carbon economy. This index is based on liquid securities selected from its parent index, STOXX Developed Europe. Companies identified as non-compliant according to their Global Standards Screening (GSS) assessment or that are involved in Very Severe ESG Controversies or Controversial Weapons or Tobacco Production, are not eligible for selection. Securities that generate revenues above a certain threshold from coal, oil and gas exploration or processing activities, or from fossil fuel-based power generation are not considered for selection. Furthermore, companies that ISS ESG assesses to have Significant Obstruction in the UN SDGs 12,13,14 and 15 are excluded from the selection universe. The weighing process follows an optimization model that minimizes its exposure to a risk score consisting of four sustainable terms subject to constraints.
