Methodology

The STOXX Emerging Markets 800 LO Index universe is defined by the STOXX Emerging Markets 1500 Index. All companies from the universe with an average daily traded value greater than or equal to EUR 0.5 million are eligible for inclusion in the index. The largest 800 companies are then selected, taking into account the 720/880 buffer rule.
The index is weighted by free-float market cap. A capping factor is applied in order to underweight companies that are illiquid relative to their market cap.
A detailed description of the index methodology can be accessed in the index rulebook:
