Société Générale Index launches new index based on the global security sector

Société Générale Index (SGI) has launched SGI Global Security, a benchmark of the security sector worldwide.

Société Générale Index (SGI) has launched SGI Global Security, a benchmark of the security sector worldwide. With increasing globalisation and exposure to an ever wider variety of risks,  security is of growing importance globally. The sector has thus experienced strong growth,  which is expected to continue in the months and years to come. 
 
Part of the β-research range, this index is composed of the most representative companies in the fields of physical and technology security listed on the world’s stock exchanges. SGI Global Security provides investors with access to the upside of diversified global security performance combined with daily liquidity. 
 
Société Générale is responsible for the selection of the index components,  with S&P as the index calculator. The SGI Global Security Index is replicated by a Société Générale certificate listed on Euronext (Isin = FR0010495127), Bloomberg: SGCX.
