F&amp;F (383220), Iljin Hysolus (271940), and SD Biosensor (137310) are also meeting the inclusion screening requirements. But they do not meet the minimum listing period of 6 months, so they will not be included in the index for this rebalancing. At their current market caps, they will likely join KOSPI 200 in the June rebalancing next year.Below are the passive inflow estimates for each likely addition. Meritz Financial Group and SL Corp are expected to experience significant passive inflow at 1.91x and 1.69x compared to ADTV, respectively.
