*SAX (Slovak Share Index) is the official index of Bratislava Stock
Exchange. It is a capital-weighted index that compares the market
capitalization of a selected set of shares with the market
capitalization of the same set of shares as of a given reference day.
The SAX index reflects an overall change of assets connected with an
investment in shares that are included in the index. This means that,
besides fluctuations in prices, the index also includes dividend
payments and revenues connected with changes of share capital amount
(that is, the difference between current market price and the issue
price of new shares).
The initial value of the SAX index - 100 points - was set September 14,
1993. The index reflects development only on the BSSE, and has been
based to date on the average prices stated in the price lists.
*SDX (Slovak Bond Index) is a bond market indicator of Bratislava Stock
Exchange. It was introduced on October 1, 1996.
The SDX index has two components. The first component is comprised of
government bonds; the second one is comprised of company (corporate)
bonds.
It is calculated to a cumulative formula comprising both the capital
changes (prices) and interest changes (all-quote interest yield and
coupon payments) as the most suitable one for the index. The index
represents the value of SKK 100 invested in the index portfolio at the
beginning of trading. The value of the index increases together with
increasing accumulated interest yield, and increases or decreases
together with the movement of prices in the market. Individual issues in
the index portfolio are assigned weights proportional to the total
amount of the issue. A six-month limit prior to the day of a bond's
maturity is set for the exclusion of an issue from the index.
