Strategie
The objective of this Sub-Fund is to track the performance of MSCI EMU Climate Paris Aligned Filtered Index (the 'Index'), and to minimize the tracking error between the net asset value of the Sub-Fund and the performance of the Index. The Sub-Fund aims to achieve a level of tracking error of the Sub-Fund and its index that will not normally exceed 1%.
The Index tracks an equity index based on the MSCI EMU index representative of the large and mid-cap stocks across developed market countries in the European Economic and Monetary Union (the 'Parent Index'). The Index is designed to support investors seeking to reduce their exposure to transition and physical climate risks and who wish to pursue opportunities arising from the transition to a lower-carbon economy, while aligning with the Paris Agreement requirements. The Index incorporate the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations and are designed to exceed the minimum standards of the European Union Paris Aligned Benchmark. The exposure to the Index will be achieved through a Direct Replication, mainly by making direct investments in transferable securities and/or other eligible assets representing the Index constituents in a proportion extremely close to their proportion in the index.
