Next, companies that protects against and prepares to recover from the identified threats are determined based on their financial reports, websites, news reports and interviews. Finally, minimum size and liquidity requirements must be satisfied. Securities that passed all these steps forms the final portfolio. The index is weighted by market-cap with 4.9% single issuer cap, and is rebalanced semi-annually and reconstituted annually.
