About ETP+ on FuW Swiss 50 index
The FuW Swiss 50 Index NTR is developed by the editorial team of Finanz und Wirtschaft (FuW) and includes the top 50 tradable Swiss companies. Every six months, the companies in the index are selected according to their free float market capitalization and considering minimum liquidity requirements. The top 25 companies are double-weighted, while the remaining 25 companies are single-weighted, resulting in a broader diversification compared to market capitalization weighted indices. The recently launched ETP+ on the FuW Swiss 50 Index NTR is listed on BX Swiss.
