Singapore’s 10 Stocks in the FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index

The objective of the FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index is to identify quality and overlooked value stocks listed in ASEAN exchanges.

Constituents must pass a proprietary value screening process which use P/E ratios, dividend yields, return on equity, operating profit margin, net gearing and a unique contrarian factor.

Mapletree Logistics Trust joins the FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index effective today, replacing Mapletree Industrial Trust. The other nine Singapore stocks that are included in the Index are Yangzijiang Shipbuilding Holdings, CDL Hospitality Trusts, Jardine Cycle & Carriage, Keppel Corp, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp, Sembcorp Industries, Sembcorp Marine, United Overseas Bank and UOL Group.

The FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Total Return Index has generated a 0.6% total return in the year thus far, with longer term three year total return at 12.4%. Together the 10 Singapore constituent stocks have averaged an 2.4% total return in the 2015 year thus far, taking their average three year total return to 25.9%.

The FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index is a value-based index designed by Value Partners Index Services and created, calculated and maintained by FTSE International.  

The FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index consists of 50 stocks amongst liquid and tradable ASEAN companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, Bursa Malaysia, the Philippine Stock Exchange, Singapore Exchange (SGX) and the Stock Exchange of Thailand. 

The Index is free float weighted and constituent stocks are capped at 5% weightings to avoid over-concentration in any one stock. More than half the index weighting is represented by the Financials Sector through banks and real estate. There are a total of 10 stocks listed on SGX that are currently included in the FTSE Value-Stocks ASEAN Index.
