YTD Performance of Global & Regional Equity Indices

Of the 20 observed indices, SBITOP tops the list with a YTD increase of 33%.

2021 could be considered as a very solid year for equities both in the region and globally. With very solid performances of SBITOP and CROBEX, we decided to take a look at how does this performance compare to major European and global indices. For this, we looked at 20 selected equity indices.

As visible from the table, 17 out of 20 indices noted a double-digit increase while Slovenian SBITOP leads the list with a YTD increase of as much as 32.6%. It is interesting to note that SBITOP outperformed virtually all global indices (for ex. S&P500 by 12.2 p.p.). Austrian, ATX follows with also a very strong increase of 30.2%. Croatian CROBEX also noted a very solid increase of 13.1%, despite being heavily reliant on the tourism sector, which has been significantly affected globally since the outbreak of the pandemic.

On the flip side, the only index (of the observed ones) to note a YTD (first 9 months) decrease was Hang Seng, which noted a decrease of -5%.
