By Janaghan Jeyakumar, CFA

  • In this insight, we take a look at the potential index changes for ASX 300, 200, 100, 50, and 20 in the run up to the September 2023 Rebalance.
  • I currently expect one change for the ASX 100 index and five changes (including one intra-review change) for the ASX 200 index.
  • There could be 7 ADDs and 5 DELs for the ASX 300 index.

  • Funding costs pressure are far higher and NIM contraction is substantial
  • High rates for longer & greater risks of recessionary-conditions can weight more on MQG
