Summary
The STOXX Minimum Variance indices are designed to minimize risk by reducing the volatility of the underlying index. STOXX offers two versions of STOXX Minimum Variance indices: constrained and unconstrained.
The constrained version optimizes the benchmark index with respect to volatility, offering investors an improvement over the benchmark.
The unconstrained version provides a strategy index that is minimized for volatility but not restricted to follow a specific benchmark too closely.
The STOXX Minimum Variance indices are designed in cooperation with Axioma, combining Axioma´s factor model know-how with the STOXX`s index creation and calculation expertise. The indices are available for different regions and countries worldwide.
