STOXX^® Canada 240 ESG-X

The EURO iSTOXX 50 ESG+ GR Decrement 5% Index replicates the performance of the total return version of the EURO STOXX 50 ESG+ Index assuming a constant 5% performance deduction per annum. The performance deduction accrues constantly on a daily basis (using an Actual/365 Fixed day count convention). Consequently, due to the percentage of performance deduction, the EURO iSTOXX 50 ESG+ GR Decrement 5% Index underperforms the EURO STOXX 50 ESG+ Index.

The STOXX® Global ESG Select KPIs offer a broad market exposure that is tilted towards companies that score better with respect to a small set of environmental, social, and governance KPIs.

Companies are selected and weighted by the following KPIs: CDP emission/energy reduction target, percentage of women on the board, percentage of independent directors, policy against child labor, golden parachute agreement. The index includes ESG exclusion screens for Global Standards Screening, Controversial Weapons, Small Arms, Military Contracting, Unconventional Oil & Gas, Thermal Coal, Tobacco, Private Prisons and ESG Controversies. KPI standardization by industry and country capping reduce unwanted systematic active exposures.
