Methodology
KASI
Level = Base x Sum(price x shares in issue) / Sum(reference price x shares in issue)
Every ordinary share is included at its full market value, so the largest companies carry the most weight. Real estate investment trusts are excluded.
45 constituents. Base value 178.4 at the reference date.
K20
Level = Base x (Product of price / reference price) ^ (1 / 20)
A geometric mean gives each of the twenty constituents the same influence. A 10 percent move in any constituent moves the index by roughly 0.5 percent.
20 constituents. Base value 3,052 at the reference date.
K25
Level = Base x Sum(weight x price / reference price), with each weight capped at 10%
Weights start from market value. Any constituent above 10 percent is capped and the excess is shared out across the rest in proportion to their size.
25 constituents. Base value 4,860 at the reference date.
