Direct Answer
The Dow Jones Global Titans 50 is a rule-based measurement of 50 of the world's largest multinational companies by market capitalisation, maintained by S&P Dow Jones Indices. Like every index it owns nothing: it is a number produced by applying a published weighting formula to a selected list of securities, revised on a schedule the provider sets.
What this index covers
The Dow Jones Global Titans 50 covers 50 of the world's largest multinational companies by market capitalisation. S&P Dow Jones Indices defines which securities are eligible, how they are selected from that pool, and how much each one contributes to the published number.
The methodology document, published by S&P Dow Jones Indices, sets the rules for inclusion and removal. Corporate actions, index reviews, and eligibility changes all move the constituent list on the timetable the provider specifies.
