Annual Review for Nikkei 1000

Nikkei Inc. will make the following changes to the Nikkei Japan 1000 (Nikkei J1000) constituents and IWFs (Investable Weight Factors) after conducting the annual review. These changes will be effective from October 31th, 2016.

As a result of the annual review, 5 constituents will be deleted and 12 constituents will be added. Because no constituent has been added with extraordinary deletion for the Nikkei J1000, the number of the Nikkei J1000 constituents is 993 now. The number of the constituents will be back to 1,000 after this replacement.

The IWFs of 64 constituents will be also changed. The 56 constituent IWFs will rise and the 8 constituent IWFs will fall.
