(LEAD) Lyxor MSCI Europe ESG - Ratings and Ratios

The Lyxor MSCI Europe ESG Leaders (DR) UCITS ETF - Acc EUR (XETRA: LEAD) is a passively managed index-tracking fund designed to align with environmental and social governance (ESG) principles under Article 8 of the SFDR. It seeks to replicate the performance of the MSCI Europe ESG Leaders Net Total Return Index, offering exposure to large and mid-cap companies across developed Europe with high ESG ratings.

The fund’s primary objective is to track the index’s movements, both upward and downward, while minimizing tracking error. It achieves this by holding a portfolio of securities that closely mirrors the index’s composition. The reference currency is the Euro, and the fund is listed on XETRA, making it accessible to European investors seeking ESG-compliant exposure to the region’s equity markets.

With assets under management of 1,438.74 million EUR, the ETF provides a cost-efficient way to gain exposure to European equities with strong ESG profiles. The fund does not focus on traditional valuation metrics like P/E or P/B, as its strategy is driven by the ESG ratings of its constituents rather than their current market valuations.

Investors in LEAD gain access to a diversified portfolio of European companies that demonstrate leadership in environmental, social, and governance practices. The fund’s approach is designed to balance risk and return while adhering to ESG criteria, making it a suitable choice for investors integrating sustainability into their portfolios.
