The price indices of Wiener Börse AG are continuously calculated during trading hours. The new index value is calculated by multiplying the initial value by the ratio of the current index capitalization to the initial capitalization and the current adjustment factor. The purpose of the adjustment factor is to compensate for changes due to index adjustments (e.g. corporate actions). Only changes of share prices and exchange rates influence the index value.
