Date 06/02/2013
The success of FTSE’s market indices is founded on a combination of expert research and analysis, clear methodology, and its unique ability to reflect the perceptions and real-world experience of its clients and investors worldwide.

It remains a key reason for maintaining this classification today. FTSE believes that to include South Korea in an Emerging Market index creates distortions that fail to reflect the intentions of investors.
