How is the Calvert Social Index constructed?
Calvert starts by taking the 1,000 largest companies in the US, based on total market capitalization, included in the Dow Jones Total Market Index (the Dow Jones TMI). Calvert’s Social Research Department then analyzes each company. A social audit is conducted in the following areas: Products, Environment, Workplace, Integrity. The stocks that meet Calvert’s social criteria make up the Calvert Social Index.
