STOXX Global Low Carbon Select 100

Index Description

The STOXX Global Low Carbon Select 100 EUR Index captures the performance of low carbon emissions stocks with low volatility and high dividends from the STOXX Global 1800 Index. The component selection process first excludes all stocks that belong to the ICB Subsector 1771 (Coal), then selects in each ICB industry all stocks whose Carbon Intensity is the lowest. Next, it excludes all stocks whose 3- or 12-month historical volatilities are the highest. Among the remaining stocks, the 100 stocks with the highest 12-month historical dividend yields are selected to be included in the index. The percentage of exclusion/inclusion at each step is the same. The index also exlcudes companies violating international norms, are involved with controversial weapons, tobacco, thermal coal, civilian firearms, military equipment, and unconventional oil and gas. Those constituents are weighted according to the inverse of their volatility, with a cap at 10%. The indices are reviewed quarterly.

Performance and annual returns

Methodology

The base universe is taken as all stocks in the relevant benchmark index excluding ICB Subsector 60101040 Coal. Those stocks are screened for reported or estimated carbon emission data, 12-month historical daily pricing data and 12-month historical dividend yield, and if any one of the values is not available for a stock, the company is removed from the base universe.


The detailed methodology including the calculation formula can be found in our rulebook: www.stoxx.com/rulebooks.
