Brief description of the data offering

The Circular Economy Index Strategy provides exposure to companies with innovative solutions and technologies that are enabling the transition towards a circular economy.

Built on the robust Minerva iClima framework, the strategy classifies constituents across five core pillars — Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Redesign, and Regenerate — and twelve sub-segments. These companies are selected for their measurable impact on reducing CO₂ equivalent (CO2e) emissions, adherence to minimum social safeguards, and alignment with environmental objectives. Each constituent also meets stringent technical screening criteria, ensuring the index reflects both environmental integrity and sustainable innovation.

In addition to its circular economy-focused approach, Minerva offers a suite of differentiated strategies that classify companies across a spectrum of thematic climate pillars, each selected for its transformative potential in driving global decarbonisation. These strategies are designed to capture innovation and leadership in climate-aligned sectors, and include:

  • Climate mitigation​
  • Smart energy​
  • Early-stage revenues​
  • Long-duration energy storage​
  • Climate adaptation 

Where and how do you source your data?

Online media, NGO data, corporate disclosures, regulatory filings, official government sources, sanction lists and enforcement databases, legal records, and court proceedings are all screened weekly for potential controversies.
