About the Swedish Equity Indices
An equity index is a market index that tracks the performance of a selected group of stocks and our Swedish equity indices are no exception to this. Some of our Swedish Equity Indices have been tracking the Stockholm stock exchange since the 1980s.
Since then, we have expanded the number of Swedish indices to over 120. These indices vary in complexity, ranging from Total Return to Price Return and Decrement indices.
Some top names amongst our Swedish Equity Indices include the SIX30.SE, which measures the performance of the top 30 companies, and the SIXPRX.SE, which measures the overall Swedish market but with reinvested dividends.
