6 RTS-MICEX Indices are the leading benchmarks of the Russian organized securities and derivatives markets. The equity indices are capitalization-weighted indices. They are calculated based on the total market capitalization of constituent stocks divided by the total market capitalization of these stocks at the initial date. MICEX Index is a composite index of the 30 most liquid stocks of the largest and dynamically developing Russian companies from the major sectors of the Russian economy. The Index is calculated using ruble-denominated prices for the constituent stocks. RTS Index is a broad-based index calculated on the basis of prices of 50 liquid shares of the most highly capitalized Russian companies. This allows it to reflect precisely the entire Russian cash equity market. The Index is computed from the US dollardenominated prices. Cap Indices are market-capitalization weighted indices comprised of the most liquid stocks of Russian issuers: MICEX LC (MICEX Large Cap Index) contains the top companies as measured by market capitalization. MICEX MC (MICEX Mid Cap Index) contains companies with market capitalization ranked lower than for the top companies. MICEX SC (MICEX Start Cap Index) contains companies with small capitalization. Sectoral Indices reflect the movements of prices in a given sector of the economy represented in the Russian stock market. They usually include 10 to 20 liquid shares of the most highly capitalized Russian issuers belonging to this sector. MICEX O&G (RTSog) comprises stocks of oil & gas companies.
