Understanding the JPX Nikkei Small and Mid Cap Index

The JPX Nikkei Small and Mid Cap Index operates under the same conceptual framework as the JPX Nikkei Index 400, focusing on companies with high investment appeal. This index is structured around businesses that are dedicated to sustained corporate value enhancement and shareholder-centric management.

Jointly calculated by JPX Research Institute and Nikkei Inc., the index comprises stocks available on the Tokyo Stock Exchange's prime, standard, and growth markets. The selection process involves a rigorous filtering of stocks based on market capitalization, liquidity metrics, and quantitative indicators such as the three-year average return on equity (ROE). Qualitative aspects, including the appointment of independent outside directors, contribute positively to the scoring.

The index is composed of 200 selected stocks, and a reassessment is conducted annually in August. For more information about the JPX Nikkei Small and Mid Cap Index, interested parties can refer to the following URL: JPX Nikkei Small and Mid Cap Index Information.
