Solactive BBVA Climate Action PAB Europe Index
Overview
Solactive BBVA Climate Action PAB Europe Index is a Paris-Aligned Benchmark (PAB) to invest in companies at the forefront of the climate transition, based on the EU Climate Benchmarks. Complying with the minimum requirements set by the EU, our strategy goes much further. Our goal is to leverage on transitional opportunities avoiding environmental risks, and targeting an average temperature well below 2ºC placing it on the most demanding scenario. EU Minimum requirements Portfolio decarbonization of 50% at inception, 7% YoY portfolio decarbonization, Energy Activities exclusions as per the EU thresholds, baseline exclusion on international norms. BBVA’s blueprint Selection and weighting based on companies with a better score on transitional opportunities and environmental risk management (Carbon Risk Rating) as well as higher probability of temperature alignment with Sustainable Development Scenario (Climate Scenario Analysis) |
