FTSE Global Equity Index Series
The FTSE Global Equity Index Series covers over 7,400 securities in 47 different countries and captures 98% of the world's investable market capitalisation - covering every equity and sector relevant to international investors’ needs.
The index series is divided into Developed, Advanced Emerging and Secondary Emerging segments, giving investors the opportunity to develop their own investable universe. The modular nature of the series provides the maximum breadth of options for structuring portfolios, with indices calculated at regional, national and sector level. Investors can then select on a size level from the all-encompassing FTSE Global All Cap Indices (Large/Mid/Small Cap), FTSE All-World (Large/ Mid Cap) or single size index (Large Cap, Mid Cap or Small Cap).
