Index Solutions for the Global Markets
The SIX Global Equity Indices constitute a suite of indices developed by SIX, which capture the performance of equity instruments across world markets.
All SIX Global Equity Indices are calculated starting from the SIX Global Equity Universe and are divided in two main families:
- The SIX World Indices comprise indices with a variable number of components that aim to provide the broadest market representation for a diversified set of large geographic regions
- The SIX Broad & Blue-Chip Indices include indices with a fixed number of components that aim to capture the most representative companies of geographic or economic agglomerations from medium- to country-level.
The SIX Global Equity Indices are calculated in USD, EUR and CHF, plus local currency for country indices. Most indices are free-float market capitalization weighted. However, some indices are offered as price weighted.
The SIX World Indices are published as end-of-day only, while the SIX Broad & Blue-Chip Indices are also published intraday delayed. The historical values for all indices in the Global Equity Indices family are available as of 31 May 2013.
