The FTSE Emerging All Cap Index is a market-capitalisation weighted index highlighting the performance of large, mid and small cap stocks in emerging markets. Index rejigs are key events for the market as they help investors to gauge the direction in which the funds are moving. When an index is reorganised, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds that track that index perform a rebalancing exercise. This is crucial for them to re-align their portfolios with the new composition of the index.
Essentially, the index's constituents are adjusted to maintain the intended asset allocation proportions or to keep the overall risk level consistent with the index's predefined methodology. The rebalancing activity usually begins days before the date the changes are implemented. FTSE index changes are closely tracked by global investors because passive funds benchmarked to these indices often rebalance their portfolios based on the revisions.
The move could lead to incremental inflows into the newly added stocks closer to the effective date. FTSE, short for Financial Times Stock Exchange, is a family of global stock market indices jointly developed by the Financial Times and the London Stock Exchange. The FTSE All-World Index tracks the performance of large and mid-sized companies across developed and emerging markets worldwide and is weighted based on companies' market capitalisation.
