Xtrackers MSCI World ESG UCITS ETF 2C EUR Hedged is an exchange-traded fund that tracks a specialized MSCI index focusing on companies from developed markets with superior environmental, social, and governance (ESG) characteristics and reduced carbon footprints. It provides exposure to large and mid-cap equities across 23 developed countries, representing approximately 85% of each market's free float-adjusted capitalization, while prioritizing sustainability leaders. The underlying index, akin to variants like the MSCI World ESG Selection P-Series Extra or Low Carbon SRI Leaders, selects constituents through rigorous ESG screening, excluding firms with controversies such as UN Global Compact violations or high fossil fuel reserves, resulting in strong metrics like an ESG score of 7.3, environmental pillar score of 6.5, and low carbon intensity of 135.8 t CO2e/$M EVIC. Hedged to euros, it mitigates currency risk for European investors. Top holdings include prominent names like NVIDIA, Microsoft, and Alphabet, spanning sectors such as technology, communication services, and consumer cyclicals. This ETF plays a key role in the sustainable investment landscape, enabling alignment of global equity exposure with ESG objectives under UCITS regulations.
