      • Should bonds with an initial time to maturity of less than 18 months be excluded from the iBoxx EUR IG & iBoxx GBP IG indices?
      • Should senior fixed-to-float bonds be included in the iBoxx EUR Liquid Corporates sub-indices?
      • Should iBoxx indices add subordinated debt classification tiers for Financial Services issuers?
      • Should Financial Services issuers become eligible for the broad iBoxx Contingent Convertible indices?
      • Should AT1 bonds with PONV triggers become eligible for the broad iBoxx Contingent Convertible indices?
      • Should AT1 bonds with PONV triggers remain ineligible for the liquid iBoxx Contingent Convertible indices.
      • Should AT1 bonds with PONV triggers become ineligible for the iBoxx EUR/GBP/USD Benchmark indices?
      • Should all bonds with European call options become eligible for the iBoxx EUR Investment Grade indices?
      • Should the iBoxx EUR High Yield universe be extended to include bonds with a remaining maturity of below 12 months?
      • During the 12-months implementation existing bonds would naturally mature within the index. S&P DJI would not re-include existing bonds with a remaining maturity of below 12 months. Do you agree?
      • Should bonds with an initial time to maturity of below 18 months be excluded from the iBoxx EUR High Yield indices?
      • Should the minimum rating threshold for the iBoxx EUR Liquid High Yield indices be removed?
      • Should bonds from distressed debt exchanges/restructurings be included, if the bonds meet all other eligibility criteria, regardless of whether the bonds were previously part of the index membership?
      • Do you have any comments on any of the above proposals that you would like S&P DJI to consider?

  • Please be advised that all comments from this consultation will be reviewed and considered before a final decision is made; however, S&P DJI makes no guarantee nor is under any obligation to comply with any of the responses. The survey may result in no changes or outcome of any kind. If S&P DJI decides to change the index methodology, an announcement will be posted on our website.
