Index Description

The Syntax Stratified SmallCap Index is the stratified-weight version of the widely-used S&P 600® Index. The index holds the same constituents as the S&P 600, but the weight of each company in the Syntax Stratified SmallCap Index is based on Syntax’s patented methodology to control exposure to related business risks (RBRs).
