The Brussels Stock Exchange.

The BEL 20 is the benchmark stock market index of Euronext Brussels. In general, the index consists of a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 20 companies traded at the Brussels Stock Exchange. Since 20 June 2011, the BEL20 has contained 20 listings, with the exception a one month period in May-June 2018 when Ablynx stock was removed following the takeover by Sanofi [2], only to be replaced mid June by arGEN-X.

Rules

The composition of the BEL 20 index is reviewed annually based on closing prices on the last Friday in February.[3] These changes are effective after the third Friday of March. In addition to meeting a set of criteria demanding a company be "representative of the Belgian equity market", at least 15% of its shares must be considered free float in order to qualify for the index.[3] In addition, a candidate for inclusion must possess a free float market capitalisation (in Euros) of at least 300000 times the price of the index on the last trading day of December.[3] The minimum requirement for an existing constituent to remain in the index is a market cap of 200000 times the index value.[3] At each annual review, the weights of companies in the index are capped at 15%,[3] but range freely with share price subsequently. The BEL20 is a capitalization-weighted index. Its record high is 4756,82 set on 23 May 2007.
