Climate indices

Designed to facilitate the shift towards a low-carbon economy

STOXX’s range of Climate indices help investors reduce exposure to climate-related financial risks and increase allocations to companies offering opportunities in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Climate index families

ISS STOXX Net Zero Transition

The ISS STOXX Net Zero Transition indices are a next-generation, optimized set focused on net-zero targets and transition-alignment metrics, and encompassing of all industries in the parent universe.

Paris-Aligned Benchmark

The STOXX Paris-Aligned Benchmark Indices (PABs) follow and exceed the requirements in the EU Climate Benchmarks regulation. The indices encourage climate stewardship and corporate engagement to align with the global warming target of the Paris Climate Agreement. They aim for a 60% greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity reduction relative to the starting universe and a year-on-year 7% decarbonization target.

Climate Transition Benchmark

The STOXX Climate Transition Benchmark Indices (CTBs) are constructed to follow and exceed the EU Climate Benchmarks requirements. The indices allow for more sectorial diversification than the PABs and help investors adopt a portfolio decarbonization trajectory. They aim for a 40% greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity reduction vs. the starting portfolio and a year-on-year 7% decarbonization target.

Climate Change

The STOXX Climate Change indices incorporate CDP’s climate change scoring methodology, which evaluates companies based on their progress in the transition towards a low-carbon economy. There are three categories of Climate Change indices: Climate Awareness, Climate Impact and Climate Leaders.

Low Carbon

The STOXX Low Carbon indices help investors decarbonize portfolios by removing companies with the highest carbon intensities. We offer four families of low carbon indices: Low Carbon, Reported Low Carbon, Industry Leaders and Low Carbon Footprint.

WTW Climate Transition

The STOXX Willis Towers Watson Climate Transition Indices employ a unique Climate Transition Value at Risk (CTVaR) methodology that quantifies the anticipated impact of an economic transition on equity valuations.
