Poliwogg Medical Indexes

UNIQUE FUNDAMENTALLY BASED METHODOLOGIES

Poliwogg Medical Indexes represent breakthroughs in “smart beta” index methodologies. Poliwogg Medical Indexes apply metrics that are specific to biotechnology and pharmaceuticals and are not applicable to other sectors or industries, resulting in highly idiosyncratic performance characteristics.

PURE PLAY

Poliwogg Medical Indexes focus on companies that are principally engaged in the US health care sector, with strong emphasis on the dynamic small/mid-capitalization biotechnology segment.

ENTIRELY RULES-BASED

All Poliwogg Medical Indexes depend on clearly defined rules based methodologies, which are overseen by an impartial Index Committee. No discretion is exercised in compiling the indexes and a pre-defined screening protocol assures a consistent, transparent and arms-length compilation process.
