Swisscanto sustainability rating
Our sustainability rating assesses the sustainability performance of your fund according to the following four basic elements:
Transparency and reporting
You have access to regular reports on your assets with regard to CO2e intensity, the achievement of the Paris climate target, the proportion of controversies in the portfolio and the contribution towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We report this assessment transparently at the fund level.
Everything at a glance with sustainability reporting
With sustainability reporting for our Responsible and Sustainable funds with traditional investments, you can see at a glance how sustainable your investments really are in comparison with the benchmark index. The report reflects the criteria used in our investment process and allows you to gain a deeper insight into the sustainability performance of your investment product.
Controversy score
Controversial business, questionable practices, violation of standards of conduct
ESG score
How sustainably is the country or the company managed?
Climate score
How much does the country or the company pollute the environment with its CO2e emissions?
SDG score
Does the country or the company contribute towards achieving the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals?
Why do we have our own sustainability assessment?
We have developed the Swisscanto sustainability rating to reflect important sustainability aspects such as the contribution of products or services to environmental and social challenges as well as controversial business practices and fields.
The Swisscanto sustainability rating thus enables a more comprehensive sustainability assessment of our sustainable investment solutions.
Transparency with our sustainability reporting
Since we are convinced that reporting is important for our investors, we introduced sustainability reporting for our Responsible and Sustainable investment solutions with traditional investments at the beginning of 2021. We update the reports on all sustainability dimensions on a quarterly basis.
