FTSE/JSE Preference Share Index

FTSE Group and JSE Limited have launched the FTSE/JSE Preference Share Index, a market capitalisation weighted index consisting of non-convertible, non-redeemable floating rate preference shares. Preference shares are defined as shares bearing a fixed annual rate of dividend with a prior right over all ordinary shares in the distribution of dividends from annual profits; and a prior claim to repayment of capital on a winding-up of the company. The shares are held like bonds.
