UBS MSCI UNITED KINGDOM IMI SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE UCITS ETF (ACC., GBP) UKSA.GB

UBS MSCI United Kingdom IMI Socially Responsible UCITS ETF tracks an index designed to give exposure to UK companies that meet strict environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards and have lower carbon risk.

It seeks to replicate the performance of the MSCI UK IMI Extended SRI Low Carbon Select 5% Issuer Capped Index (or a substantially equivalent index) by physical full replication. The index excludes companies involved in nuclear power, tobacco, alcohol, gambling, military weapons, civilian firearms and genetically modified organisms.

From the remaining universe of UK equities in the MSCI UK IMI parent index it selects sector-relative leaders in ESG by keeping the top 25% in each sector, requires a minimum ESG rating above 'BBB' and a controversies score greater than 3.

A maximum issuer weight cap of 5% is applied. The fund is equity-based, focused on United Kingdom large- and small-cap companies as covered by the MSCI UK Investable Market Index IMI. It is a UCITS-compliant ETF domiciled in Ireland, managed by UBS Asset Management.
