iSTOXX Cross-Atlantic Sustainable Infrastructure Select 30

Index Description

The iSTOXX Cross-Atlantic Sustainable Infrastructure Select 30 Index tracks companies involved in the construction and deployment of public infrastructure works in the US, Canada and Europe and that show the highest environmental standards. Final index screens select stocks with the lowest volatilities and highest dividend yields. Index constituents provide assets and services needed to meet one of the biggest endeavors of the 21st century: the upgrading of public infrastructure in developed markets to support growing populations, urbanization, technological advancements and climate change. A list of more than 500 business sectors categorized by Revere (RBICS) help determine which companies derive revenues from the infrastructure theme. The index excludes companies in breach of Global Standards Screening and those involved with weapons, adult entertainment, gambling, oil & gas, thermal coal, nuclear power, tobacco or aerospace & defense. It incorporates those with the highest scores in 15 Key Performance Indicators for environmental practices and programs within their operations and management. The final composition list is made up of the 30 companies.

Performance and annual returns

Methodology

The index universe is the union of STOXX Europe Total Market, STOXX USA Total Market and STOXX Canada Total Market indices. Companies with revenue exposure above 10% to the sectors associated with the infrastructure megatrend are selected. These companies are screened on specific Environmental Key Performance indicators related to 'sustainable infrastructure', and companies that score below an acceptable threshold on more than half the KPIs they are assessed for are excluded. Additional filters are applied to ensure companies engaged in controversial activities, or are non-compliant with the Global Standards Screening, are excluded. The eligible companies are ranked based on their volatility; the top 50% of companies with the lowest volatility proceed to the next step. All remaining companies are ranked based on their dividend yield; the 30 companies with the highest yields are selected such that country and industry diversification constraints are met.

The index is weighted by the inverse of the selected stocks' volatility, capped at 10% and reviewed quarterly.
