The Cleaner Living ESG-S UCITS ETF - Acc gives investors exposure to a portfolio of companies worldwide focused on producing environmentally friendly goods and providing services towards a healthier lifestyle.

For inclusion in the index, at least 80 per cent of sales must be derived from at least one of the following five business sectors: cleaner building and infrastructure, cleaner energy, cleaner food, cleaner health, and cleaner transportation. The products and services offered focus on reducing waste, using natural and recyclable ingredients, and lowering CO2 emissions.

Companies that do not comply with current international standards on human rights, environmental protection, labour practices, anticorruption, and controversial weapons production are excluded from the index. Additionally, companies with too high a carbon intensity are not included.

Any dividend income is reinvested. The index uses an equal weighting of the individual companies, whereby a business sector may not represent more than 30 per cent.
