Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), a leading global provider of data, technology and market infrastructure, today announced the annual reconstitution of the ICE Biotechnology Index (ICEBIO), which is effective before the open of trading on Monday, December 20, 2021.
The ICE Biotechnology Index tracks the performance of qualifying U.S. listed biotechnology companies classified within the Biotechnology Sub-Industry Group of the ICE Uniform Sector Classification schema, which is a multi-asset class industry classification taxonomy developed by ICE. The index includes companies that are engaged in the research and development of therapeutic treatments but are not focused on the commercialization and mass production of pharmaceutical drugs. The index also includes companies that are engaged in the production of tools or systems that enable biotechnology processes.
“This annual reconstitution ensures that the index maintains its representation of the broader biotechnology industry,” said Aram Flores, Head of Index and Analytics at ICE. “By including companies meeting a minimum threshold of market capitalization and liquidity from multiple U.S. exchanges, the index provides a better gauge of the biotechnology industry and helps improve the investability for users benchmarking to the index.”
The following companies will be added to and removed from the index in the December 2021 annual reconstitution:
