Dow Jones Sustainability Europe Index and Dow Jones Sustainability Eurozone Index
KEY FACTS
- The Dow Jones Sustainability Europe Index (DJSI Europe)
and Dow Jones Sustainability Eurozone Index (DJSI Eurozone) comprise the leading companies in terms of sustainability
from Europe and the Eurozone. For both of these indexes
there is a composite and a specialized index available with
the latter excluding companies that generate revenue from
alcohol, tobacco, gambling, armaments & firearms and adult entertainment. This
set of indexes was published on 4 August 2010.
- The DJSI Europe tracks the financial performance of the
top 20% in terms of sustainability of the largest 600 European companies in the Dow Jones Global Total Stock Market Index. The DJSI Eurozone is the Eurozone
subset of the DJSI Europe.
- The Dow Jones Sustainability Europe Index and its subsets are reviewed annually and
quarterly to ensure that the index composition accurately
represents the leading sustainability companies in each
of the SAM sectors within the investable universe.
- The annual review methodology selects these leading sustainability
companies from the investable stocks universe. The resulting
changes to the index composition are announced on the annual
review date in the first week of September and implemented
- after the official closing prices have been determined
- on the third Friday of September.
- The quarterly reviews reflect changes in the investable
stocks universe as well as changes with regard to the number
of shares, free float factors and — if applicable
— free float cap factors. Quarterly reviews are implemented
on the third Friday in March, June, September, and December
to become effective on the next trading day.
