Xtrackers MSCI AC World Screened UCITS ETF 1C

Xtrackers MSCI AC World Screened UCITS ETF 1C is an exchange-traded fund that tracks the MSCI ACWI Select Screened Index, focusing on large and mid-cap companies from developed and emerging markets worldwide. This index applies rigorous ESG screening criteria to the parent MSCI ACWI Index, excluding firms involved in controversial activities such as weapons, tobacco, or those failing UN Global Compact standards, while prioritizing higher ESG-rated securities for enhanced sustainability. The ETF employs a long-only, optimized physical replication strategy, is domiciled in Ireland, and is provided by Xtrackers, with a fund size exceeding EUR 5 billion as of recent data. As an accumulating UCITS-compliant vehicle in EUR without currency hedging, it reinvests dividends to compound returns, minimizing distributions to investors. Key holdings mirror the index's top constituents like NVIDIA, Apple, and Microsoft, spanning technology, healthcare, and other sectors with strong global diversification across 23 developed and 24 emerging markets. Launched in February 2014, it plays a pivotal role in sustainable investing, offering broad equity exposure aligned with environmental, social, and governance principles for institutional and retail portfolios seeking responsible global market participation.
