Thomson Reuters, the information provider for businesses and professionals, has today launched a global range of indices to help monitor world markets, benchmark specific countries, regions, and sectors, and develop investment vehicles.
The launch of Thomson Reuters Indices marks the first time the company has provided indices under its brand.
Thomson Reuters Indices cover 44 countries and 18 regions, and have an overlay of global, regional and country indices by economic sector.
The 800 indices in total have been created using a proprietary liquidity filter that links liquidity and "investability", and selects constituent equities based on price not volume, as traditional filters do.
The indices utilise Thomson Reuters Business Classification system, covering 71,000 public and 230,000 private companies worldwide providing investors and analysts new and deeper views of markets.
They range from broad market segments, such as the Thomson Reuters Global Energy Index, to very specific, such as the Thomson Reuters Emerging Markets Asia Telecommunications Index.
All Thomson Reuters Indices are accessible via desktops as well as data feeds, in products such as Thomson Reuters Portfolio Analytics, Reuters 3000 Xtra, and Thomson Reuters Datastream.
