SOLACTIVE EUROPEAN BUYBACK |

Rationale for Methodology Change
Following the decommissioning of the buyback data source and the inability to run the selection model
with the current methodology, we suggest a new approach to track companies engaged in future buyback programs. This new methodology ensures the continuity of the index calculation and maintains its replicability.
