Alternative Weighted Indices
 
FTSE was the first major index provider to offer non-market cap weighted indices.

Together with building our own alternative indices, we have established partnerships with a number of established experts in this field to develop a comprehensive range of non-market cap weighted indices.

These indices are used as an additional tool to capture systematic sources of return, to diversify core passive portfolios and to gain better downside protection. They are low cost, transparent, with a rules-driven index structure.
