Unique Pair of Indexes Track Israel\u2019s Domestic-focused and Globally-Oriented<\/strong><\/p>\n

By launching the Solactive-BlueStar Israel Economic Exposure Index (IEEI) family, Solactive AG and BlueStar Indexes introduce an innovative pair of indexes designed to reflect the segmentation of the Israeli economy between globally-oriented firms and companies primarily focused on serving the domestic economy.<\/p>\n

The Solactive-BlueStar Israel Domestic Exposure Index (IDEI) and Solactive-BlueStar Israel Global Exposure Index (IGEI) provide
\ninvestors with two distinct benchmarks for Israeli equities. <\/p>\n

These two indexes can be used as vital indicators of Israel\u2019s
\neconomic cycles and specific economic trends, as well as tools or vehicles to track the potential risk of geopolitical events in the
\nvolatile Middle East.<\/quote><\/p>\n

Additionally, these indexes provide insight into the different risk, reward, correlation, yield and other
\ntechnical and fundamental characteristics of Israeli Global Equities representing Israel\u2019s domestic and global economies.<\/p>\n

Steffen Scheuble, CEO, Solactive, commented: \u201cBy partnering with BlueStar Indexes to launch the Israel Economic Exposure
\nIndexes we are introducing a pair of indexes that enable investors to focus on the two distinct parts of the Israeli economy, and
\nmake appropriate investment decisions based on the trends from these two benchmarks. Through anticipated products that will
\ntrack these indexes, investors will be able to participate in the positive influence of both factors driving the Israeli equity
\nmarkets.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Steven Schoenfeld, Founder of BlueStar Indexes, said: \u201cWe believe that investors in Israel and around the world will find the
\nunique attributes of the Israel Domestic Exposure Index and the Israel Global Exposure Index to be highly-useful as performance
\nbenchmarks for the two categories of Israeli companies \u2013 those that are heavily focused on the global market, and those that
\nderive most of their revenue from the domestic economy. BlueStar is proud to partner with Solactive to bring these innovative
\nindexes to the market, and we are confident that a wide-range of products will be launched tracking these unique benchmarks.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Solactive-BlueStar Israel Economic Exposure Indexes utilize the constituents of its parent index, the BlueStar Israel Global
\nIndex \u2013 Total Investable Market (BIGI-TIM) as the basis for its selection universe.<\/quote><\/p>\n

BIGI-TIM includes all Israeli and Israel-linked companies, regardless of listing venue, with a float-adjusted market capitalization of at least $50 million USD equivalent and 6-month average daily value traded of at least $200,000 USD equivalent. The economic exposure indexes further refines the
\ninvestable universe to companies that have trailing twelve month revenue of greater than $2 million USD equivalent at the
\nrebalance selection date. The index methodologies define a company\u2019s economic exposure by the percentage of its revenues
\nderived from the target economic zone \u2013 revenue from within Israel for IDEI and revenue from outside of Israel for IGEI. <\/p>\n

In addition, the index methodology provides for several diversification and liquidity limitations. Finally, the index methodology takes into account the importance of balanced, yet representative, sector exposure and diversification within sectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
