Only bonds with a minimum remaining maturity of one year and an investment grade rating are considered. In addition, they must have a minimum outstanding amount of US$2 billion.
The Xtrackers II Eurozone Government Green Bond UCITS ETF focuses on green bonds issued by Eurozone governments and denominated in Euro. Green bonds are issued to finance environmentally and climate friendly projects.

In addition, debt instruments of countries whose country risk is assessed as “severe” by the ESG rating agency Sustainalytics are excluded. The total weighting of a country is limited to 35 per cent.
