EMTXi: [Eurozone Inflation-Linked Indices]

On 3 June 2004, MTSNext launched the EuroMTS Inflation Linked index
(EMTXi), the first independent, eurozone Inflation linked sovereign debt
based on tradable underlying prices taken from the new EuroMTS Linkers
market segment.
EMTXi has been designed in conjunction with the French bond association
(Comite de Normalisation Obligataire, CNO) to accurately represent the
structure of the inflation-linked bond market and to be homogenous with
the EuroMTS Index family. The index includes all eurozone sovereign issues
quoted on the MTS trading platform with more than €2 billion outstanding
and at least one year to maturity.
EMTXi is calculated in realtime from 09:00 to 17:30 CET with two Daily
Fixings (11:00/16:00 CET). All data necessary to replicate
the index is available on this web page and on the usual data vendor
terminals.
The construction methodology and transparency of the EuroMTS Inflation
Linked index make it an ideal underlying index for a variety of financial
products such as exchange traded funds, OTC derivatives and index funds :
