Direct Answer
The STOXX Asia/Pacific 600 is a rule-based measurement of 600 large-, mid-, and small-cap companies across asia-pacific markets, maintained by STOXX/Qontigo. 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 STOXX Asia/Pacific 600 covers 600 large-, mid-, and small-cap companies across asia-pacific markets, within the Asia-Pacific market. STOXX/Qontigo 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 STOXX/Qontigo's current methodology document, so none is stated here rather than guessed. The provider link below is authoritative.
