Xtrackers II ESG Global Government Bond UCITS - 1D 

This ETF seeks to replicate the returns of the FTSE ESG Select World Government Bond Index – Developed Markets. Its portfolio is exclusively composed of fixed-rate, local currency, investment-grade sovereign debt. The selection process ensures coverage across the entire yield curve, with all holdings having at least one year remaining until maturity. A core requirement is that all eligible bonds must adhere to specific Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) standards. Only nations designated as 'Free' by Freedom House are considered for inclusion. The index's weighting strategy is adjusted to allocate higher exposures to countries demonstrating stronger ESG performance and lower exposures to those with weaker ESG profiles. Further specifics about the index and its foundational methodology can be found on the FTSE Russell Index website (https://www.yieldbook.com/).
