[edit] Index Family

The STOXX Index family represents a wide range of stocks covering different market segments and different investment strategies. On a regional level the indices initially covered Europe, the Eurozone and Eastern Europe. The first STOXX indices were introduced at the beginning of 1998[2]: the Euro Stoxx 50 Index [3] [4] and the STOXX Europe 50 Index[5][6]. In 2011 STOXX expanded its index range by adding a consistent global index family for global regions and countries. [7]
