MSCI Japan Empowering Women (WIN) Select Index
The MSCI Japan Empowering Women (WIN) Select Index, which is part of the MSCI environmental, social and governance (ESG) indexes, aim to represent the performance of companies that are leading within their GICS®1 sector in terms of promoting and maintaining gender diversity.
Companies that promote and maintain higher levels of gender diversity among their workforce may be better positioned to withstand talent shortages and generate more sustainable performance with reduced risk. To support institutional investors seeking exposure to companies that are promoting and maintaining gender diversity among their workforce, MSCI has developed the MSCI Japan Empowering Women (WIN) Select Index2. The index also includes stocks of companies that have significantly increased their investment on capital goods or R&D while maintaining high level of sales growth and gender diversity.
