DSEX and DS30 Index

Dhaka Stock Exchange Indices

The Dhaka Stock Exchange presently computes two indices, DSE
Broad Index (DSEX) and DSE 30 Index (DS30). None of the DSE
Indices include mutual funds, debentures and bonds.

Introduction of DSE Indices

The Dhaka Stock Exchange Limited introduced DSE Broad Index
(DSEX) and DSE 30 Index (DS30) as per DSE Bangladesh Index
Methodology designed and developed by S&P Dow Jones Indices
with effect from January 28, 2013. DSEX is the Broad Index of the
Exchange (Benchmark Index) which reflects around 97% of the total
equity market capitalization.
DS30 constructed with 30 leading companies which can be said as
investable Index of the Exchange. DS30 reflects around 51% of the
total equity market capitalization. The criteria taken into
consideration in construction of these Indices are:

Market Capitalization
DS30 - Eligible stocks must have a float-adjusted market capitalization
above 500 million BDT as of the rebalancing reference date.
DSEX - Eligible stocks must have a float-adjusted market
capitalization above 100 million BDT. Additionally, if a current
index constituent falls below the 100 million BDT threshold, but is
no less than 70 million BDT, then the stock remains in the index
provided it also meets the other inclusion criteria.
Float-Adjustment: A stocks weight in an index is determined by
its float-adjusted market capitalization.

Liquidity
DS30- Stocks must have a minimum three-month average daily
value traded (ADVT) of 5 million BDT as of the rebalancing
reference date. Liquidity criteria can be reduced to 3 million BDT
in certain circumstance to ensure there are enough constituents
in the index. At each semi-annual rebalancing, if a current index
constituent falls below 5 million BDT but is no less than 3 million
BDT then the stock remains in the index provided it also meets
the other eligibility criteria.

DSEX - Stocks must have a minimum six-month ADVT of 1 million

BDT as of the rebalancing reference date. At each annual
rebalancing, if a current index constituent falls below 1 million
BDT, but is no less than 0.7 million BDT, then the stock remains in
the index provided it also meets the other eligibility criteria.
In addition, all eligible stocks for the DSE indices are required to
trade at least half of normal trading days each month for the three
months prior to the rebalancing reference date.

Financial Viability
DS30 - Stocks must be profitable as measured by positive net
income over the latest 12-month period, as of the rebalancing
reference date. The figure is calculated by adding the latest four
quarters of net income reported for the company.
DSEX - Financial viability is not required for index membership.

Sector Classification
All listed DSE stocks are classified according to the DSE Industry
Classification system. The number of constituents in Banks,
Financial Institutions, Insurance sector, Real Estate Sub-sector of
Service & Real Estate sector, Pharmaceuticals and Fuel & Power is
capped at 5 each and 20 combined for the DSE Bangladesh 30
Index. Sector diversification rule is not applied to the DSE
Bangladesh Broad Index.
Sector diversification rule is not applied to the DSEX.

Base Date
The base dates of the DSE 30 Index (DS30) and The DSE Broad
Index (DSEX) are January 17, 2008.

Base Value
DSE 30 Index (DS30): The base value is 1000 for DS30 Index.
The DSE Broad Index (DSEX): The DSE Broad index has a base
value of 2951.91 on Jan 17th 2008 which was the index value of
the DSE General Index on this date. The new index is a broad
market index and is designed to reflect the broad market
performance. Starting the base value at 2951.91 the performance
of the two indices has been linked and we maintain the
continuity of the performance of the benchmark. The two indices
are very close in design and we can build on the history of the
older index which goes back to 2001.
