The Leaders and Laggards model takes in six indicators and scores for each holding in your portfolio and classifies them as "LEADER", "ALLY", "UNDER PERFORMER", or "LAGGARD". The result is a color-scaled pie chart indicating the portfolio percentage in those four categories.
What Defines a Leader?
Lowest Combined Scope 1 and 2 Carbon Emissions Intensity
Lowest Scope 3 Carbon Emissions Intensity

Highest Percent Renewable Energy Produced
Highest Percent Renewable Energy Purchased

The greater the weight of the holdings in your portfolio that meet these criteria, the bigger the LEADERS segment of the portfolio will be.
