Index Description. Thomson Reuters CRB Commodity Producers Index (TICKER: CRBQX) is an equity index designed to serve as a benchmark for globally
traded stocks that are principally engaged in the production and distribution of commodities, including energy, metals and agricultural products. The
CRBQX employs a modified capitalization weighting methodology designed to assure accurate investment exposure across the various business segments
that together comprise the global commodity producers industry.
Inclusion Criteria. All constituents in the CRBQX are “principally” engaged in the production of commodities. For the purposes of the CRBQX, a principally
engaged company must derive 50% or more of its annual revenues from its participation in its applicable industry. The CRBQX contains stocks selected from
a universe of approximately 1500 companies worldwide that pass the applicable revenue tests. Stocks eligible for inclusion in the CRBQX must trade on an
approved stock exchange, either as an ordinary, ADR or GDR, and have no material restrictions on foreign investment. Stocks must have a minimum market
capitalization of USD 750 million (USD 1 billion for energy stocks) and have average daily turnover in excess of USD 1 million per day.
Weighting Methodology. The CRBQX is divided into four sectors and the aggregate weight of each sector is fixed based on estimates of 3-year average
global production and/or consumption of the relevant commodity. Adjustments are made for precious metals to account for its role as a financial asset.
Sector weights are revised annually. Individual companies are weighted within their sectors based on a capitalization weighting methodology, adjusted for
free float, and then modified by the applicable sector weight.
Rebalancings. The CRBQX is rebalanced quarterly on the third Friday of the last month of each calendar quarter. Sector weights are adjusted to reflect the
annually revised sector weight at each rebalancing. Sector weights are revised annually on the third Friday of June.
Index Data. The CRBQX contains a fixed number of 150 constituents and is calculated in real time by the New York Stock Exchange. Deletions between
rebalancings are not replaced. Index values are distributed throughout the day at fifteen second intervals in U.S. Dollars. The CRBQX is calculated on both a
price only and total return basis. Daily values are available from December 31, 1999.
