Greece & Turkey 30 Index (GT-30) is a customized index, created as a result of the cooperation of the Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE), Athens Stock Exchange (ATHEX) and STOXX Ltd., a global index provider. The Index is calculated independently by STOXX and will be used as an underlying for the creation of a variety of new financial products including Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) to be traded on both markets, and thereby provide new investment opportunities to the investors for the stocks traded on the ISE and ATHEX, at lower costs.

GT-30 is composed of a total of 30 constituents, 15 from each market, based on their full market capitalization in descending order. The Index will be reviewed biannually (March, September) as to its composition and quarterly (March, June, September and December) regarding capping factors.

Price and Return Indices are available for GT-30, and in two different currencies, ie, EUR and TRY.

Dissemination frequency of Price Indices is real time at 15-seconds intervals, whereas it is end of day for Return Indices. Data will be delivered to data vendors by STOXX Ltd. over CEF Feed (Deutsche Börse system).

Investment companies planning to issue financial products based on GT-30 Index are required to sign a licensing agreement with the ISE and/or ATHEX.
