FIDA ESG Rating is the top Italian ratings agency<\/strong> for assets managed in the field of sustainability <\/strong>(website here<\/a>), created by FIDA, an independent company specialising in data\nanalysis for investment products.
\nThe Etica System funds<\/a> were analysed using a special rating system owned by FIDA,\naccording to European regulations on sustainability in the financial services\nsector (Regulation (EU)\n2019\/2088 or SFDR<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FIDA ESG Rating: the results<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Etica System funds analysed[1]<\/strong><\/a> received positive\nand excellent ratings<\/strong> from\nFIDA, which assigned the maximum ESG Rating <\/strong>of 5<\/strong><\/a>.
\n<\/strong>The aim of the ESG rating (where ESG stands for\nenvironmental, social and governance) is to help make the ESG characteristics<\/strong> of collective investment funds more\nstandardised, comparable and transparent<\/strong>, thus reducing the risk of greenwashing<\/a>, a labelling practice with a misleading image of\nsustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FIDA method<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Numerous factors are considered before determining\nand assigning ratings to collective investment funds. FIDA’s sustainability assessment<\/strong> of asset\nmanagement instruments uses a composite\nsystem<\/strong> which includes various types of analysis:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asset management company: <\/strong>organisational procedures, policies adopted to ensure investment\ndecisions that take into account sustainability as well as the potential\nability to make investment decisions that take into account sustainability\n(corporate social responsibility) are assessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classification of<\/strong> investment\npolicies, i.e. the level of sustainability of the investment policy according\nto the SFDR:<\/strong> the degree of sustainability of the investment policy and\nthe objectives are analysed according to European regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transparency: <\/strong>the willingness of the manager to provide complete and accurate\ninformation about the products and their composition is analysed; analysing\nthis aspect contributes to the ESG qualification of the manager and its\nproducts, in the interests of stakeholders and investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Portfolio composition<\/strong>: the securities that make up the fund\u2019s portfolio are assessed\nfor their degree of sustainability to check the real implementation of the ESG\nmission using third-party databases that use artificial intelligence to\ncontinuously analyse an extremely wide range of information sources. A\ndistinctive element at this stage is the almost exclusively non-corporate\norigin of the information taken into consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the above assessments, a score from 0 to 100<\/strong> is assigned to the asset management products,\nwhich in turn determines a rating\nbetween 1 and 5<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Etica Funds, an entire lifetime focused on ESG<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Etica Funds is the only Italian asset management\ncompany to exclusively <\/strong>offer sustainable and responsible open-ended<\/strong>\ncollective investment funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
