INDEXES

The China Commodity Index (CCI) gauges price changes in 32 contracts of 28 commodities traded on the country's three futures exchanges in Shanghai, the northeastern city of Dalian and Central China's Zhengzhou. It aims to become a benchmark for China's commodity futures market.

The Caixin China General Services PMI seeks to provide the most up-to-date possible indication of what is happening in the country's growing services industry by tracking variables such as sales, employment, inventories and prices.

The Caixin China General Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) is closely watched by investors as one of the first available indicators every month of the strength of the Chinese economy.

The Mastercard Caixin BBD China New Economy Index (NEI) measures the share of nascent industries driven by technology and talent in China's economy in terms of inputs. By focusing on these sectors instead of resource- and labor-intensive industries, the NEI helps track the pace of structural transition in the Chinese economy.
