The Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) has today begun real-time dissemination (every 15 seconds) of the Tokyo Stock Exchange REIT Property Sector Index Series through the Market Information System, in line with a previous announcement on June 18, 2010. This was followed by the start of calculation and dissemination of this Index Series on June 21, 2010.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange REIT Property Sector Index Series consists of the
"Tokyo Stock Exchange REIT Office Index", "Tokyo Stock Exchange
REIT Residential Index", and the "Tokyo Stock Exchange REIT Retail
& Logistics, Others Index" and are based on the use of the properties
subject to investment by each REIT.
The TSE hopes that the above indices will be utilized in trend analysis of
specific segments and creation of exchange traded funds and such financial
products which use such indices as underlying indices.
