About INVESCO S&P INTL DEVEL ESG INDE ETF CAD HEDGED UNIT

The fund selects companies from developed markets that meet certain ESG characteristics while maintaining the same risk and return as the index. The index is a composite of three ESG sub-indexes that hold large- and mid-cap securities from developed markets in Europe, Mid-East and Africa, and Asia-Pacific ex-South Korea. Each sub-index applies an exclusionary screening based on an ESG risk rating by Sustainalytics, a UNGC score by Arabesque, and an S&P DJI ESG Score by SAM. A company is excluded if it is involved in tobacco, thermal coal, and controversial weapons, has a UNGC score in the bottom 5% of all UNGC-scored companies globally, or has an S&P DJI ESG score within the worst 25% of each GICS industry group. The remaining companies are ranked in descending order of their S&P DJI ESG score, with the top 75% of market capitalization within each industry group selected. The resulting components are combined to form the index. The index rebalances and reconstitutes annually.
