The MDAX® and SDAX®, respectively, gauge the performance of the country’s mid- and small-caps. The TecDAX® tracks German technology companies. Finally, the HDAX® Index groups all equities that belong to either the DAX, MDAX or TecDAX. The SDAX was the group’s best-performing index for a third month in a row. The DAX® 50 ESG Index, which excludes companies involved in controversial activities and integrates environmental, social and governance (ESG) scoring into stock selection, beat both the flagship DAX and the HDAX. The latter forms its starting universe. Risk and return characteristics (EUR) Return (%) (EUR) Annualized volatility (%) 1M YTD 1Y 1M YTD 1Y 1. DAX -1.4 -3.7 2.7 24.5 36.5 32.4 2.

MONTHLY INDEX NEWS / September ESG-X Indices Key points The STOXX® Global 1800 ESG-X Index came up broadly in line with its benchmark during September, allowing investors to generate market-type returns while complying with sustainable policies. The EURO STOXX 50® ESG-X Index outperformed its benchmark. The ESG-X indices are versions of traditional, market-capitalization-weighted benchmarks that observe standard responsible exclusions of leading asset owners. They incorporate basic norm- and product-based exclusion criteria to comply with ESG principles. Companies are excluded based on data provider Sustainalytics’ determination of non-compliance with the Global Standards Screening assessment, involvement in controversial weapons, tobacco production, thermal coal extraction or exploration, or use of thermal coal to generate at least a quarter of power output.

  • Deutsche Börse First in Europe with Regard to Issue Volume
    A very warm welcome to the Edison conference book for the Deutsches Eigenkapitalforum 2019. Following a record year for IPOs in 2018, this year has been rather disappointing so far. Year-to- date values are down by 40% in Europe compared to 2018. The picture is similar in Germany. Moreover, IPO performance is not very encouraging, with each of the four IPOs in Germany trading below issue price. However, TeamViewer’s listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange provides one of the few bright spots in the IPO environment in the third quarter, putting Deutsche Börse first in Europe with regard to issue volume. From a German perspective, it is very pleasing that the domestic exchange can support large tech IPOs. With a number of IPOs being cancelled or postponed, the market is already looking ahead to next year. At this point, 2020 could be a very successful year for new listings, with several landmark transactions in the pipeline like Continental Powertrain, Siemens Energy and Wintershall DEA. Needless to say, all this depends on the global economic environment. Equity markets are clearly buoyed by politics at present. Looking at the factors driving markets and sentiment, it is striking that many are the same as last year. Brexit has not been resolved and trade disputes continue. Investors have been factoring a risk premium into asset prices for those political developments for more than a year. Nonetheless, our strategist Alastair George argues in his recent report that we are seeing progress on both these questions and that we may be past the peak of political risk.

  • Dax® 50 Esg Index Outperforms As Markets Recover
    December 2020 DAX ® 50 ESG INDEX OUTPERFORMS AS MARKETS RECOVER Ladi Williams, Product Manager – Index, Qontigo Anand Venkataraman, CFA, Head of Product Management – Index, Qontigo Qontigo DAX ® 50 ESG INDEX OUTPERFORMS AS MARKETS RECOVER TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 3 DAX ® 50 ESG INDEX 3 METHODOLOGY 3 DAX ® 50 ESG INDEX PROFILE 4 OvERALL INDEX PERFORMANCE 7 CONCLUSION 11 Qontigo 3 DAX® 50 ESG INDEX OUTPERFORMS AS MARKETS RECOVER INTRODUCTION Our paper titled “The DAX® 50 ESG – The New Standard In German ESG Investing”, which was published in March 2020, introduced the DAX® 50 ESG Index, which applies exclusionary screens and uses sustain- ability parameters in its stock selection methodology. Companies involved in undesirable or controversial activities from a responsible investing perspective are excluded, while companies with the highest ESG scores are prioritized for inclusion over these laggards. The paper compared the index’s risk-return characteristics to the DAX® given its overlapping stock universe, the similarities in its methodology, and the fact that it provides “greener” exposure to the German capital market thanks to its higher ESG score. Our analysis showed that it had provided better risk-adjusted returns since index inception (September 2012). In this paper, we have narrowed our focus and analyzed the performance of the DAX® 50 ESG Index over the period from March 20, 2020 (the end date of our analysis last time and which was around the beginning of the recovery from the market distress caused by the COVID-19 pandemic) until November 13, 2020. Our findings show that the DAX® 50 ESG Index has outperformed during this period, with the sustainability criteria applied as part of the index methodology contributing favorably to returns.
