Scientific Beta considers that ESG and Low Carbon objectives should not be mitigated by considerations relating to the financial qualities of stocks and should rely on a clear exclusion policy that sends an equally clear message to companies and the markets. It is on this principle that two ESG and Low Carbon filters that apply to all Scientific Beta multi-factor flagship offerings have been constructed. The design of these filters ensures that ambitious ESG or Low Carbon objectives are reached while maintaining factor intensity and diversification, which are the academically-consensual drivers of the performance of smart beta strategies.

At special breakfast presentations to be held in a number of European cities, Erik Christiansen, ESG & Low Carbon Solutions Specialist at Scientific Beta, will discuss the different approaches to reconcile ESG and factor investing and will present the ESG and Low Carbon options available on all of Scientific Beta’s flagship multi-smart-factor indices.

These seminars are reserved for asset owners and allocators. The organisers reserve the right to refuse registration requests to preserve the diversity of the audience.
