EMCR Profile
The Xtrackers Emerging Markets Carbon Reduction and Climate Improvers ETF is designed to provide investors with exposure to large and mid-capitalization companies from emerging markets that adhere to specific environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria. The underlying index of the fund includes companies that either meet established ESG standards or have committed to substantial greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. This focus aims to align the fund's investments with sustainable and climate-conscious practices in emerging markets.
The fund's investment strategy mandates that it allocate at least 80% of its net assets, including any borrowings for investment purposes, to equity securities of issuers based in emerging market countries. By concentrating on companies that are making strides in reducing their carbon footprint or enhancing their climate performance, the fund seeks to offer investors a way to support and benefit from the growth of environmentally responsible businesses in these developing regions.
In addition to its ESG focus, the ETF provides a diversified approach within the emerging markets sector, although it remains non-diversified overall. This means that while the fund is concentrated on companies meeting specific climate and ESG criteria, it may not be diversified across all sectors or geographies within emerging markets. The aim is to offer targeted exposure to businesses that are actively contributing to environmental sustainability and climate improvement efforts.
The Xtrackers Emerging Markets Carbon Reduction and Climate Improvers ETF caters to investors looking to align their portfolios with global sustainability trends while capitalizing on growth opportunities in emerging markets. Its focus on companies with strong ESG practices and carbon reduction commitments reflects a growing trend towards responsible investing and supports the transition to a more sustainable global economy.
