The index targets investors who are
\ninterested in the UK domestic market. The UK is the second largest market in Europe in terms of GDP and this
\nindex enables investors to focus on a basket of companies that are less dependent on international revenues.<\/p>\n
Other major UK-focused indices include a large number of multinational companies that are not generating
\nincome domestically. This is especially the case for listed companies in the energy and mining sectors whose
\nrevenues are mainly derived from operations outside the UK. As a matter of fact, the top 20 companies by
\nmarket cap listed on the London Stock Exchange* have an average UK-based revenue of 18%, with only one
\ncompany generating all of its income in the UK and approximately a third of them generating less than 5% of
\nthe revenues domestically. Therefore, the performance of major UK indices is influenced by companies who do
\nnot necessarily depend on the state of the UK economy for their revenue generation. The Solactive UK
\nDomestic Index instead gives investors the opportunity of being more directly exposed to the UK domestic
\nmarket.<\/p>\n
