Removal of Sponda Oyj from VINX Benchmark Index (26/17)


The following information is based on a press release from POLAR BIDCO S.À published on July 17, 2017.

It is announced that POLAR BIDCO S.À has over 90 percent of the total amount of shares in Sponda Oyj (SDA1V, FI0009006829).

If POLAR BIDCO S.A., as a result of the offer, acquires more than 90 % of the share capital of Sponda Oyj, NASDAQ OMX Global Index Group will act and adjust SDA1V in accordance to the “Rules for the Construction and Maintenance of the VINX All-Share, Benchmark, Tradable and Sector Indexes”, Version 2.2, rule 5.9.
