Market Consultation on Process Definition of China Connect Listings | January 24, 2020

Solactive AG has decided to conduct a Market Consultation regarding  standardized treatments to face potential issues of China A-shares inclusion in the background of the China Connect Stock Program. These treatments include the introduction of a “Blocked List” for stocks which have been removed from the Positive List (Eligible Securities) and an Extraordinary Rebalancing mechanism if the minimum members constraint of an index is breached due to removals of the Positive List.

The detailed descriptions of the proposed changes can be found in the attached documents.

Stakeholders and third parties who are interested in participating in this Market Consultation, are invited to respond until February 21, 2020.
