Description

United Utilities Group Plc engages in the provision of water and wastewater services. It collects water from the environment, which the firm cleans and stores before distributing it to customers for their use, then collects it as wastewater and treats it before returning clean water back to the environment. The firm's wastewater treatment captures a sludge which is then transported to its Bioresources treatment facilities. The entity’s main treatment process uses digestion technologies to safely and compliantly treat the sewage sludge. The digestion treatment produces biogas which it uses to generate renewable energy and biosolids for onward use. The company was founded on April 1, 1989 and is headquartered in Warrington, the United Kingdom.

Risk

Risk metrics in this section:

Volatility, annualised, measured for 1, 3 and 5 year periods. The annualised volatility reflects the degree of price fluctuations during a one year period. The higher the volatility, the more significantly the price of the asset (stock, ETF, etc.) has changed in the past. Assets with higher volatility are generally considered more risky. We calculate the volatility based on the data for the past 1, 3 and 5 years so that you can see if price fluctuations for the ETF became stronger or weaker over time.
Return per risk for 1, 3 and 5 year periods. This is the annualised (i.e. converted to a one year period) past return divided by the past annualised volatility. The metric puts the historical return of an asset in relation to its historical risk and gives you a retrospective indication of the degree of price fluctuation you had to bear with in order to obtain the return. We calculate this parameter for 1, 3 and 5 year periods to display its evolution over time.
Maximum drawdown for a period. This shows the worst possible loss an investor could have suffered during the respective period, by first buying and subsequently selling the asset at the least favourable prices. For example, if there was the following sequence of daily ETF prices: 10€, 5€, 12€, 20€, an investor would have suffered the worst loss by buying for 10€ and subsequently selling for 5€. Therefore in this case the maximum drawdown would be (5€ - 10€)/10€ = -50%.

ETF returns include dividend payments (if applicable).
