Since 2020, the DAX indices have undergone a sustained evolution to have their rules adjusted and aligned with the needs of modern markets. As of March 2024, the indices’ methodology will change the way they treat corporate actions, while data distribution will move to the reporting system used by STOXX indices. Additionally, the indices’ weight cap for individual constituents will be raised from 10% to 15%.

As part of STOXX’s 25th anniversary celebrations, we caught up with Stephan Leithner, member of the Executive Board and responsible for Pre- & Post-Trading businesses at Deutsche Börse Group; and with Axel Lomholt, General Manager at STOXX. We got their impressions on STOXX’s growth trajectory and asked them what lies ahead for an indexing industry immersed in full transformation.

Investing has transformed radically since STOXX Ltd. was born. After a quarter-century of change, we continue to innovate with a growing family of indexing solutions that are as smart as they are accurate and reliable.
