FTSE4Good UK index

The FTSE4Good Index Series is designed to measure the performance of companies demonstrating strong Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practices. Transparent management and clearly-defined ESG criteria make FTSE4Good indices suitable tools to be used by a wide variety of market participants when creating or assessing responsible investment products. FTSE4Good indices can be used in four main ways: Financial products - as tools in the creation of index-tracking investments, financial instruments or fund products focused on responsible investment; Research - to identify environmentally and socially responsible companies; Reference - as a transparent and evolving global ESG standard against which companies can assess their progress and achievement; Benchmarking - as a benchmark index to track the performance of responsible investment portfolios.
