# Premier Market Index (Kuwait): What It Measures and How It Is Built

## Direct Answer

> The Premier Market Index (Kuwait) is a rule-based measurement of companies listed on the Premier Market segment of Boursa Kuwait, maintained by Boursa Kuwait. Like every index it owns nothing: it is a number produced by applying a published weighting formula to a selected list of companies, revised on a schedule the provider sets.

## What this index covers

The Premier Market Index (Kuwait) covers companies listed on the Premier Market segment of Boursa Kuwait, within the Kuwait market. Boursa Kuwait defines which securities are eligible, how they are selected from that pool, and how much each one contributes to the published number.

The index name does not state a fixed company count, so the number of constituents follows the eligibility rules rather than a target.

## How constituents are weighted

Swoopr has not verified the weighting method for this index against Boursa Kuwait's current methodology document, so none is stated here rather than guessed. The provider link below is authoritative.

## Current Premier Market Index (Kuwait) constituents

Boursa Kuwait publishes and licenses the Premier Market Index (Kuwait) constituent list. Swoopr does not republish it here. The provider's own page is the authoritative source for current membership and weights.
