The difference in the number of shares between the new and the old portfolio is due to the fact that we adjust for market price issues in the past period at the biannual review of the KFX Index.

The KFX Index is thus a ‘locked’ portfolio, which can only be adjusted during the period when issues result in a dilution of the share price. Please note that in the table the ‘foreign’ shares Group 4 Securicor and Nordea Bank have been adjusted on the basis of number of shares registered with VP Securities Services. Thus, there is no reduction in the listed capital of Group 4 Securicor and merely a small reduction in the listed capital of Nordea Bank.

As regards the remaining shares, the reduction in the number of listed shares is primarily due to the fact that the companies have launched a number of buy back schemes during the selection period.
