ATX index offering expanded with new short indices

(Vienna) The Vienna Stock Exchange starts today the calculation of new Short Indices on the leading index ATX, Austrian Traded Index. The new indices with a leverage of -12 and -15 are based on the ATX Total Return. The benchmark takes into account the dividend payments of its index members. With this expanded offer, the Vienna Stock Exchange is responding to the demand of international market participants.The Vienna Stock Exchange calculates more than 140 tradable indices, 103 of which track national, regional or sector developments in the CEE and CIS countries. These indices serve more than 140 financial institutions worldwide as the basis for their products.

Short indices are linked to a benchmark index and track its performance inversely, i.e. in the opposite direction. In addition, this effect can be enhanced by the use of leverage mechanisms. This gives investors the opportunity to benefit from falling prices. The two new indices run in the opposite direction to the ATX Total Return.
