- What does RCGE invest in?
- RCGE is actively managed to provide exposure to a portfolio of companies committed to managing their organizations with a gender-balance approach. The eligible universe starts from the largest 3,000 stocks by market cap in developed markets, and the largest 1,000 stocks by market-cap in emerging markets. The fund filters stocks by looking at a companys gender equality score, which is based on gender balance, gender pay gap, and policies relating to parental leave and sexual harassment. Companies in which a score cannot be determined are excluded. An additional ethics screen is used to further narrow down the eligible universe. Lastly, the fund will look at a companys financial performance, mainly debt-to-equity ratio, debt-to EBITDA, and financial statement strength. The top 150 to 200 companies with the highest gender score that meet the financial criteria are selected. The fund imposes individual, countries, and sector caps. Rebalancing is done quarterly.
