LDEM provides broad exposure to large- and mid-cap emerging-market firms with favorable ESG characteristics. Selection for the portfolio begins with the components of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The fund then excludes securities of companies involved in the business of alcohol, tobacco, gambling, nuclear power and weapons, producers and major retailers of civilian firearms, based on revenue thresholds. After this initial screening, the index uses the following process to select and rank securities until it covers 50% of the market cap in each sector: 1) eligible securities in the top 35% of market cap, 2) highly-rated securities in the top 50%, 3) current holdings in the top 65%, 4) other eligible securities. At each step, higher rated firms are selected first. Holdings are market-cap-weighted within their respective sector.
