FTSE4Good UK 50

What is the FTSE4Good UK 50?
The FTSE4Good UK 50 Index is linked to the performance of the shares of the 50 largest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange which also demonstrate strong Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practises.
The stocks that make up the FTSE4Good UK 50 Index generally also feature in the FTSE 100 Index, since both indices track the shares of the largest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange.
The FTSE4Good UK 50 differs from the FTSE 100 in that it tracks 50 companies (as opposed to 100), and only tracks companies that have a high ESG rating.
What does ESG mean?
ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance.
FTSE Russell (the company that oversees the FTSE 100 Index and the FTSE4Good UK 50 Index) gives an ESG rating to companies based on how well they manage Environmental, Social and Governance issues.
- Environmental issues include how well the company manages its water usage, how much it pollutes, and how effectively the company combats climate change.
- Social issues include how responsible the company is to its customers, how well it complies with labour standards, and the company’s policies towards human rights and its communities.
- Governance issues include how effectively the company prevents corruption, the quality of its management and how transparent the company is with its taxes.
The better a company manages these Environmental, Social and Governance issues, the higher the ESG rating awarded to it. Only those companies that have a high ESG rating are eligible for inclusion within the FTSE4Good UK 50 Index.
