- Based on the index methodology, there could be up to 5 changes at the rebalance. Plus there will be capping changes for Bank Rakyat (BBRI) and Bank Central Asia (BBCA).
- The impact of passive trading will be higher on the deletions than the inclusions since lower liquidity stocks are replaced with higher liquidity stocks.

- Upon completion, MUFG will hold 70.6% in Mandala and Adira 10% in the Indo car/motorcycle loan lender. This will trigger a Mandatory Tender Offer for the remaining 19.4%.
