Dow Jones Announces Sustainability Indices 2024 Review Results
S&P Dow Jones Indices (“S&P DJI”) has announced the results of the annual Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI) rebalancing and reconstitution. The DJSI are float-adjusted market capitalisation weighted indices that measure the performance of companies selected using environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria.
The DJSI, including the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World), were launched in 1999 as the pioneering series of global sustainability benchmarks available in the market. The index family is comprised of global, regional and country benchmarks.
As a result of this year’s review, the following top three largest companies based on free-float market capitalisation have been added to and deleted from the DJSI World. All changes are effective on Monday, December 23, 2024.
Additions: Airbus SE, Schlumberger Ltd, BAE Systems Plc
Deletions: Alphabet Inc1, UnitedHealth Group Inc, ASML Holding NV2
The full results and list of DJSI constituents will be available as of Monday, December 23 2024, at https://www.spglobal.com/esg/csa/djsi-annual-review
S&P Dow Jones Indices will be renaming a number of its sustainability and ESG-related indices (see Index Announcement). As part of this update, the family of Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI) will be renamed Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices. The changes will become effective on Monday, February 10, 2025. The S&P Global CSA Scores will continue to be a key factor in selecting constituents for the DJSI when they are renamed Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices in February 2025.
