The categories are: STOXX, iSTOXX and Customized indices. The STOXX index range represents a standard set of basic and innovative indices with a consistent and globally applicable methodology. The rules for calculation, maintenance and selection are the same for all markets and regions without exceptions or hidden rules.

The STOXX Benchmark indices cover global and regional markets, tracking precisely the performance of broad regions and market segments. The STOXX Benchmark indices are separated into Fixed Component Benchmark indices and Variable Components indices.
