Scientific Beta

From June 2015, Dutch Certificates and Australian Stapled Securities will be included in ERI Scientific Beta's list of eligible securities, and P Chips will be automatically assigned a Chinese nationality instead of a Hong Kong one.

ERI Scientific Beta would like to draw attention to the following changes: 

• ERI Scientific Beta Universe Construction: Change in Eligible Securities
  
  Dutch Certificates and Australian Stapled Securities will be included in the list of eligible securities at the June 2015 review. In accordance with our correction policy for track records, this will be applied going forward only, and will therefore not modify track records established before 23 June 2015.
  
  A detailed description of the eligible securities is available in section 3.1 of the Scientific Beta Universe Construction Rules. 

• ERI Scientific Beta Universe Construction: Change in Country Assignment
  
  From the June 2015 quarterly review onwards, P Chips will be automatically assigned a Chinese nationality. Before this date, Hong Kong was assigned to P Chips as a nationality. In accordance with our correction policy for track records, this will be applied going forward only, and will therefore not modify track records established before 23 June 2015.
  
  A detailed description of the country assignment methodology is available in section 4.1 of the Scientific Beta Universe Construction Rules.
