The Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX) has unveiled the results of its 2025 midyear index assessment, providing an updated evaluation of companies listed across its benchmark indices.

According to the exchange, the review was conducted in line with established index management rules and considered factors such as market capitalization, liquidity, and trading activity.

The assessment resulted in adjustments to some indices, with certain companies gaining entry while others were removed based on their performance against the required criteria.

NGX stated that periodic reviews are essential to ensuring that market indices accurately reflect current market conditions and provide reliable benchmarks for investors and fund managers.
