MSCI World Universal Select Index

The MSCI World Universal Select Index captures large and mid-cap securities across Developed Markets countries. The index aims to increase exposure to companies demonstrating both a robust ESG profile and a positive trend in improving that profile, by re-weighting free-float adjusted market capitalization weights based on certain ESG metrics, while minimizing exclusions from the MSCI World index. In addition, a selection of securities using pre-defined ESG screens is excluded from the index.
