Qatar Exchange expands range of benchmark and tradable indices  | Hedgeweek

Qatar Exchange (QE) has launched a number of new equity indices to complement the existing QE Index. The new indices will be live from 1 April 2012.

A total return version of the QE index will be disseminated in real-time; measuring price performance and income from dividends, thus representing the total return earned in a portfolio tracking the underlying price index. QE will also introduce All Share and sector indices, a series that provides investors with an overall market benchmark and enhanced tools to evaluate sector performance in real-time.

In line with the industry sector indices, statistical and trading reports at Qatar Exchange will reflect seven primary sectors: Banks & Financial Services; Industrials; Transportation; Real Estate; Insurance; Telecoms; and Consumer Goods & Services.
