Rationale for Methodology Change
The underlying thematic universe have grown significantly since we initially defined the number of
constituents to be 25. However, with only 25 constituents, we cannot ensure the necessary
diversification of the index as the concentration in some sub-segments would be too strong.
Furthermore, with only 25 constituents we struggle to fully represent the thematic universe in
these indexes. Hence, we see the expansion of the constituents as a needed improvement to this
index.
