Sustainable Swisscanto Responsible index funds
Swisscanto's Responsible index funds are your choice if sustainable investment is important to you. We have been developing sustainable Swisscanto index funds since 2013, and we have been continuously adding new products since then. We offer a professional approach that takes into account sustainable criteria, including climate risks.
Our method – your advantage
- 1 Broad diversification and low risk of deviation from the standard benchmark index (tracking error)
- 2 Reduction of ESG risks in the portfolio by applying exclusion criteria and excluding the worst companies in terms of ESG score
- 3 Targeted reduction of the carbon intensity in the portfolio by at least 20 percent compared to the standard benchmark index.
Transparency is paramount
All Swisscanto Responsible index funds are based on traditional and conventional standard benchmark indices. Based on the standard index, we apply defined exclusion criteria and a targeted CO2e reduction. The Swisscanto Responsible index funds are broadly diversified and best reflect the risk and return characteristics of the benchmark index.
