What is an index?

An index reflects the performance of a specific market. Typically, the performance of a basket of stocks is measured for this purpose. The well-known benchmark index MSCI World, for example, indicates the performance of more than 1,500 listed companies from industrialized countries and thus represents a large part of the global economy. In general, indices are a simple but useful tool to get information about the situation in a certain economic region or industry. You can find a detailed explanation in our knowledge article.
