Muttenz, March 17, 2017 - Clariant, a world leader in specialty chemicals, will
be included in the SPI Select Dividend 20 Index basket. The index will be
adjusted on 17 March 2017 after closing. The adjustment takes effect on 20 March
2017.
"Increasing operating cash flow is clearly emphasized by Clariant's strategy. As
the 2016 results have demonstrated, one aim of our cash generation is to return
value to shareholders as well," explains CEO Hariolf Kottmann. "We are proud
that our efforts to create long-term added value for all of our stakeholders are
recognized by this industry benchmark."
The SPI Select Dividend 20 Index includes the 20 stocks which represent the
highest-yielding companies with a stable dividend paying record and solid
profitability from all stocks in the SPI index. The weight of each constituent
is based on the free float market capitalization and the normalized dividend
yield calculated at the annual index review. Additionally, the weight of each
security is subject to a 15% capping factor calculated and applied quarterly.
The component rebalancing is implemented yearly on the ordinary review of March.
