About STOXX Limited
STOXX Ltd. is a global index provider, currently calculating a global, comprehensive index family of over 6,000 strictly
rules-based and transparent indices. Best known for the leading European equity indices EURO STOXX 50, STOXX
Europe 50 and STOXX Europe 600, STOXX Ltd. maintains and calculates the STOXX Global index family which
consists of total market, broad and blue-chip indices for the regions Americas, Europe, Asia/Pacific and sub-regions
Latin America and BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) as well as global markets.
To provide market participants with optimal transparency, STOXX indices are classified into three categories.
Regular
“STOXX” indices include all standard, theme and strategy indices that are part of STOXX’s integrated index family and
follow a strict rules-based methodology. The “iSTOXX” brand typically comprises less standardized index concepts that
are not integrated in the STOXX Global index family, but are nevertheless strictly rules-based. While indices that are
branded “STOXX” and “iSTOXX” are developed by STOXX for a broad range of market participants, the “STOXX
Customized” brand covers indices that are specifically developed for clients and do not carry the STOXX brand in the
index name.
STOXX indices are licensed to more than 500 companies around the world as underlyings for Exchange Traded Funds
(ETFs), futures and options, structured products and passively managed investment funds.
Three of the top ETFs in
Europe and 30% of all assets under management are based on STOXX indices. STOXX Ltd. holds Europe's number
one and the world's number three position in the derivatives segment.
In addition, STOXX Ltd.
is the marketing agent for the indices of Deutsche Boerse AG and SIX, amongst them the DAX
and the SMI indices. STOXX Ltd. is part of Deutsche Boerse AG and SIX.
