The STOXX PSBC China A ESG Index selects from the largest 300 securities in the STOXX China A 900 Index. The index targets a portfolio with superior ESG profile compared to the broad market, while maintaining a similar risk characteristics. The index uses data from the International Institute of Green Finance (IIGF) to apply exclusionary screens. Companies that are assessed by IIGF to be non-compliant with the UN Global Compact Principles, or involved in controversial weapons, tobacco or thermal coal are not eligible for selection. The final selection and weights are then determined using Axioma's portfolio optimization software to maximize the overall IIGF ESG score of the index, subject to predicted risk, tradability and diversification constraints.
