Section 2
Index level calculations
2.0 Index level calculations
This section details the common index level calculations that are used across different FTSE fixed income index families, which refer to this guide. For each index calculation, a description is given along with the formulae, and a list of the index families that the calculation applies to.
The key to the notation used in this document can be found in Appendix 1.
2.1 Total Return Index (TRI)
The total return index seeks to replicate the return from holding the index portfolio; it gives the market value weighted return of the index constituents, taking into account price movements, accrued interest and cash-flows from the bonds (including coupon payments, redemptions or repurchases).
2.1.1 TRI: Standard Formula
Applies to: FTSE Global Bonds FTSE BOCHK Offshore RMB FTSE Canada FTSE MTS FTSE ASFA Australia FTSE China Onshore
The generalised total return index can be expressed as:
TRt
=
TRt-1?
ni=1
ni=1 (([, + , + ,],-1.,. , + ,). ,) (([,-1 + ,-1 + ,-1],-1.. ,-1. , + ,-1). ,-1
)
For indexes that do not have bonds that go ex-dividend or do not contain capping, the formula can be simplified:
TRt ni=1 (([, + ,],-1., + ,). ,)
=TRt-1? ni=1 (([,-1 + ,-1],-1.. ,-1 + ,-1 ). ,-1)
