Data Coverage Map
Indices computed by EUROFIDAI with its high quality Stock data
Indices by country and by sector
EUROFIDAI computes indices per country (27 countries) and region, including two indices for Europe (a 11 country index and a 17 country index quoted in dollars and in euros). It also provides indices per sector.
This database contains prices and returns for all EUROFIDAI indices (with or without dividends). These indices are built in the same manner as CRSP indices, meaning that all (class A) stocks are taken into consideration. Indices are also calculated with or without foreign stocks quoted on local stock exchanges.
- General (for Europe and by country) benchmark indices: i) equally-weighted, ii) market capitalization weighted
- Sector indices covering ten general economic sectors (this number may vary depending on the stock exchange)
Factor indices and benchmark portfolios
This database provides returns for factor indices and benchmark portfolios. Factor-mimicking (portfolio benchmark) indices are computed in the spirit of the papers of Fama and French (1992, 1993) and Carhart (1997). EUROFIDAI computes factors and benchmark portfolios for 2 geographical areas including 11 or 17 European countries.
- Factor indices: size, book-to-market and momentum factors
- Benchmark portfolios:
- portfolios formed on size
- portfolios formed on book-to-market
- portfolios formed on momentum
- Risk free interest rates to compute the market premium factor
