GPW Modifies Exchange Indices

Following analyses and consultations, GPW introduces new publication terms of its sector sub-indices and modifies the classification terms of companies in the WIGdiv index.

The Exchange calculates 11 sector sub-indices which are published three times per day: at 11:15 (after the first fixing), at 15:15 (after the second fixing), and after the close of the trading session. Following the modification, the sector sub-indices will be published on a continuous basis in one-minute intervals from the open until close of the trading session.

WIGdiv covers 30 companies in the WIG20, mWIG40 and sWIG80 indices. These shares had the highest dividend yield during the last year and have paid a dividend at least three times during the last five years. Following the modification, the index will cover all companies in the WIG20, mWIG40, and sWIG80 indices which have paid a dividend regularly during the last five years.
