ABOUT <strong>ET</strong> INDEX RESEARCH<br />
<strong>ET</strong> Index Research is a mission-driven<br />
organisation dedicated to helping investors<br />
and corporates identify, understand, and<br />
manage climate and carbon-related risks.<br />
We help investors to reduce their<br />
exposure to carbon risk without sacrificing<br />
performance. Our methodology is designed<br />
to shift investment towards carbon-efficient<br />
companies across the economy. Engaged<br />
Tracking (<strong>ET</strong>) Investors take a systematic<br />
approach - incentivising the world’s largest<br />
companies to lower their greenhouse gas<br />
emissions and to improve the levels of<br />
transparency in their carbon and climate<br />
risk reporting.<br />
We do this by producing the most<br />
comprehensive public ranking of the<br />
world’s largest listed companies according<br />
to the carbon intensity of their activities; by<br />
analysing carbon risk in investor portfolios;<br />
and by producing low-carbon and fossilfree<br />
indexes that can be used by investors<br />
as benchmarks or to create customisable<br />
low-carbon investment strategies.<br />
<strong>ET</strong> Index Research is supported by family<br />
office investors and Climate-KIC, the<br />
European Union’s main climate innovation<br />
initiative. For more information or to view<br />
