Index Description

The STOXX Sharpe Ratio indices include stocks from their respective benchmark that have the highest Sharpe ratios. The indices exclude those with low dividend yields and low liquidity, select 50 (100 for the Global version) companies with the highest one-year Sharpe ratios and weights them according to the inverse of their one-year volatility (subject to a 10% cap). To calculate the one-year Sharpe ratio, the GC Pooling 12 months is used as risk-free asset.

Key facts

  • First index of its kind
  • Simple parameters to determine the selection
  • Use transparent risk free rate (GC Pooling 12 months)

Methodology

Companies that have an average six-month daily traded volume (ADTV) above a 1 million euros (the threshold is 5 million euros for the Global version) and are among the top 20% of dividend payers are eligible for inclusion in the indices. Those 50 companies with the highest one-year Sharpe ratios are included in the indices (100 for the Global version).

Each regional index – Europe, North America, Asia/Pacific – has 50 components. The Global version has 100. Index components are weighted according to the inverse of their one-year volatility. The indices are reviewed quarterly and components are subject to a 10% cap. The indices are calculated in price, net and gross return versions in euro and US dollars.

All indices use STOXX GC Pooling EUR 12 Months as the risk-free rate. The STOXX GC Pooling index family is based on the Eurex Repo GC Pooling Market and offers a transparent, rules-based, independent alternative to unsecured interbank benchmarks such as LIBOR and EURIBOR/EONIA/€STR.
