The Palestine Exchange has officially launched the Total Return Index (TRI) in a strategic move to align with international standards adopted by leading global exchanges, while providing investors with a new tool to make informed financial decisions based on realized returns over defined periods.
The Total Return Index represents a significant addition to the Palestinian financial sector, providing a comprehensive view of investment in the local market. It incorporates changes in stock prices, dividends, and their reinvestment, thereby reflecting the true long-term value of returns and enabling investors to accurately assess the performance of their investments.
Moreover, the index enhances transparency in evaluating investment performance and allows for benchmarking the exchange against regional and global markets that follow the same methodology. It also presents a clear picture of a stable Palestinian market that generates real returns, which demonstrates its strength and resilience in the face of challenges.
