The S&P 500 Quality Index is a factor-based benchmark that tracks the top 100 stocks in the S&P 500 exhibiting strong fundamental quality. Quality scores are evaluated using a composite of three metrics: return on equity (ROE), financial leverage and the accruals ratio.

Market participants can execute trades electronically via the Globex central order book, submit privately negotiated block trades and derived futures blocks or utilize Basis Trade at Index Close (BTIC) to trade directly relative to the daily cash index closing price.

Our new suite of Factor futures will be available to trade via your FCM, similar to other Equity products.
