FTSE Country Classification Review

​ Status of all countries maintained while countries on the

watch list will continue to be monitored. Nigeria, Argentina,

and Romania all added to the official watch list.

ï‚· Egypt flagged for low liquidity in the FX market but not added

to the watch list. FTSE will announce an update in March but

we expect the FX situation to improve.

ï‚· Saudi and Kuwaiti planned market infrastructure reforms

seem promising but index inclusion is contingent actual on

implementation.
