This index is designed by S&P Dow Jones Indices, one of the world's largest independent index companies, and the Japan Exchange Group. The Tokyo Stock Price Index (TOPIX) constituents are weighted based on carbon emissions data from Trucost with a focus on the levels of environmental information disclosure and carbon efficiency (i.e., carbon emissions per unit of sales). The index uses rules such as giving greater weight to companies that sufficiently disclose environmental information or are highly carbon efficient (i.e., low carbon emissions per unit of sales).
Inabata is assessed in the second decile, which is a relatively high score in the Capital Goods industry group.
