Effective with the opening of trading September 22, Seat-Pagine Gialle S.p.A will replace Telecom Italia Media S.p.A in the Dow Jones Italy Titans 30 and Woolworths Holding Ltd. will replace Johnnic Holdings Ltd. in the Dow Jones South Africa Titans 30 index.
Changes are being announced today due to the "Early Removal Rule." This rule is applied when a Titans component is not among the 60 largest companies in the Dow Jones Global Indexes country index when ranked by free-float market capitalization at the conclusion of a regular quarterly review. Normally, changes are made to the Dow Jones Italy Titans 30 and Dow Jones South Africa Titans 30 annually in March. Among the reasons for extraordinary changes is the "Early Removal Rule". The detailed methodology for each index is published in the indexes' rulebooks, accessible on the Dow Jones Indexes web site at http://www.djindexes.com
