The KASE Index shows a change in prices of the index representative list stocks for calculation of the index, with account to capitalization of such issuers and a number of such stocks in free float. One stock weight must not exceed 15 %. The KASE Index is calculated during a trading day as deals in the representative list stocks are concluded. If during a trading day no deals are made in a representative list stock, then for purposes of such calculation results of the last resultant trade session are used.
