BET-XT

Romanian stock market index From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bucharest Exchange Trading Extended Index (BET-XT) is a stock market index consisting of the 30 most liquid stocks traded on the Bucharest Stock Exchange (BVB).[3] The index serves as an extended version of the BET, providing broader exposure to the Romanian capital market by including a larger number of constituents and allowing for the inclusion of financial investment companies (SIFs).[1][4]

The BET-XT is designed to serve as an underlying asset for derivative instruments, including futures and options, as well as structured products like warrants and certificates.[1] It is calculated and disseminated in real-time by the Bucharest Stock Exchange in Romanian leu (RON), with end-of-day values also published in euro (EUR) and U.S. dollars (USD) to facilitate analysis and benchmarking for international investors.[1]

History

The BET-XT was officially launched on 1 July 2008. The index base value was set at 1,000 points, back-calculated to 2 January 2007.[1] Its creation was part of Bucharest Stock Exchange effort to expand its index family and provide investors with a more comprehensive benchmark that included the financial investment companies (SIFs), which were notably excluded from the flagship BET index.[1]

Since its launch, the composition of the BET-XT has been reviewed quarterly (in March, June, September and December) by the BVB Index Committee to ensure it continues to represent the most liquid stocks on the exchange.[1] The committee has made numerous changes over the years, including notable listings such as Romgaz and Nuclearelectrica in 2013, Digi Communications in 2017, and Hidroelectrica in 2023.[1][5][6]

Composition

As of 17 April 2026, the Bucharest Exchange Trading Extended Index consists of the following 30 companies, with a weighting as shown:[2]
