S&P Dow Jones Indices ("S&P DJI"), the world’s leading index provider, and The ASX Group ("ASX"), today marked the 20th anniversary of the S&P/ASX Index Series, which includes the S&P/ASX 200, the pre-eminent benchmark for Australian equities. Since their launch in April 2000, the S&P/ASX indices have served as independent and transparent gauges for Australian securities market performance.
S&P DJI and the ASX's two-decade partnership has paved the way for an expanded set of innovative index offerings in Australia, representing a variety of market segments, asset classes, investment themes and strategies. In addition to the S&P/ASX 200, S&P DJI and the ASX jointly launched several indices starting in April 2000 including the S&P/ASX 300, the S&P/ASX 50, S&P/ASX 100, S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries and S&P/ASX MidCap 50. The S&P/ASX All Technology Index, launched in February 2020, is the latest addition to the S&P/ASX family.
