Overview
The NT World Green Transition Index Fund seeks to closely match the risk and return profile of the MSCI World Custom ESG Climate Series A Index. The Index combines Northern Trust’s long-standing Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) approach which seeks to exclude companies with significant exposure to tobacco, conventional weapons & controversial weapons, and incorporates climate-centred-metrics to construct a climate-aware, passive solution. The fund offers a combination of negative exclusions allowing the strategy to be fully free of exposure to companies with fossil fuel reserves and significantly decarbonised from a carbon emissions intensity perspective and tilts towards companies benefiting from the energy transition and helps to mitigate against climate change risks.
