Composition of the Investment Register

When it comes to the composition of its register, Forum ETHIBEL is careful to ensure equal spread of stocks and bonds over the main regions and sectors. This offers fund managers the variation and spread, needed for a viable portfolio in financial and technical terms and still put in their own characteristics.
The number of stocks in the PIONEER Register is in the order of 250; in the EXCELLENCE Register it is in the order of 450.

Geographical spread
The Ethibel Registers are geographically spread over three zones:

  • Europe: Eurozone and non-Eurozone;
  • North-America (United States of America and Canada);
  • Asia-Pacific (Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Singapore)

Sectoral spread
Forum ETHIBEL tries as much as possible to achieve the most varied spread possible over the various sectors. There are, for instance, companies in the register from all sectors including the more difficult ones from a sustainability point of view such as energy and utility companies.
Forum ETHIBEL attempts to find pioneers and best-in-class companies in all sectors which score good to very good on all assessed SRI indicators.

Ethibel EXCELLENCE and market capitalization
Ethibel EXCELLENCE guarantees a 25% market capitalization within the DJ Stoxx 600 for the European region, excluding however the sectors ‘Aerospace & Defence’ and ‘Tobacco’.
This universe is complemented with other stocks out of the index, of the so called ‘small’, ‘mid’ and ‘micro’ cap companies.
For the non European regions, a same objective is targeted, however with no guarantees.

You can explore a selection of the register companies in the company databank.
