While the Paris agreement puts the responsibility to meet the desired targets into politician\u2019s hands, investors seek to make a difference with their investment decisions, too.<\/p>\n

The Solactive ISS ESG Provisional Paris-Aligned Benchmark Indices (PAB) provide exposure to a portfolio that, based on ISS ESG climate analysis, is in line with a 2\u00b0C scenario through 2050 allowing investors to be at the forefront of an immediate transition towards the Paris Agreement\u2019s goals.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Complementing the release, the Solactive ISS ESG Provisional Climate Transition Benchmark Indices (CTB) represent a baseline climate-aware allocation that is set up to project the path towards a low-carbon economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur two new index frameworks allow investors to proactively address climate change-related risks in their asset allocation,\u201d comments Timo Pfeiffer, Chief Markets Officer at Solactive<\/strong>. \u201cWe are very proud to deliver an index series, which gives investors potentially a holistic and reasoned strategy to tilt their portfolios towards a greener future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Starting from a set of baseline exclusions of controversial weapons and international norms violators, the Solactive ISS ESG Provisional Climate Transition Indices feature a 30% reduction in carbon intensity versus their respective benchmark while the Solactive ISS ESG Provisional Paris-Aligned Benchmark Indices take a more severe approach with a 50% reduction as well as additional activity-based exclusions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Furthermore, both index-series incorporate an ongoing year-on-year self-decarbonization of at least 7%. The index methodology is designed to meet the criteria of the EU Technical Expert Group on Sustainable Finance\u2019s (TEG) Final Report on Climate Benchmarks and Benchmarks\u2019 ESG Disclosures.<\/p>\n

The Index names contain the affix \u201cProvisional\u201d to reflect the adaptive potential that lies in the transformation of the TEG\u2019s recommendations into delegated acts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Initially covering two regions (Europe and Developed Markets), indices of the series may serve as the underlying for passive investment strategies or as a performance benchmark of GHG emission-related strategies as well as a policy benchmark to help guide strategic asset allocation.<\/p>\n
