FTSE ET50 Index

FTSE Group has launched the FTSE ET50 (Environmental Technology) Index in collaboration with the environmental technology specialist, Impax Asset Management.

Originally designed and launched by Impax in 1999, the index measures the performance of companies whose core business is in the development and deployment of environmental technologies. This includes alternative energy, water treatment, pollution control and waste management companies.

The original index has been enhanced with the application of FTSE's market-leading international index methodology and cutting edge free float weighting and liquidity screening. It has been relaunched as the FTSE ET50 Index, with an independent FTSE Environmental Technology Committee overseeing the index.

The FTSE ET50 Index provides investors with an environmental index for the basis of structured products, ETFs and index funds.
