FTSE Xinhua Index Announces Index Changes
January 11, 2007



China Life (A) is fast track addition to FXI series
Regular Review adds China Merchant Bank (H) to FXI China
25

    BEIJING, HONG KONG, Jan. 11 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- FTSE
Xinhua Index (FXI), the independent China index provider,
will add the newly-listed China Life (A Share, 601628) to
its suite of equity indices from Tuesday, 16 January 2007.
FXI's user-friendly index methodology allows newly listed
large capitalisation stocks to be added to the index series
immediately as fast track entrants, and China Life meets
this rule. 

    Following China Life's successful IPO on Shanghai Stock
Exchange on 9 January, 2007, the country's largest life
insurance company, will become a member of FTSE Xinhua
China A50, 200 and all other applicable indices with the
total shares in issue of 20,823,530,000 and an
investability weighting of 5%, 5 trading days after its
debut. To balance the index, Guangdong Electric Power (A
share, 000539) and Hubei Chutian Expressway (A Share,
600035) will be removed from A50 and 200 indices
accordingly. For details of the changes please refer to the
full technical notice here

    Separately, the FTSE Xinhua Index Committee held its
regular quarterly review meeting on 9 January 2007 at which
it reviewed and approved a number of constituent changes to
the FTSE Xinhua Index Series, including the FTSE Xinhua
China 25, A50, 200, 400 and small-cap indices. All changes
will be applied from Monday, 22 January 2007. 

    In the FTSE/Xinhua China 25, China Merchant Bank (H
share 3968) is added while Sinopec Shanghai Petrochemical
(H share 0338) is deleted to rebalance.  This index is used
internationally as the basis of several ETFs, listed on New
York, Hong Kong and London Stock Exchanges.  With over USD
6.4 billion of linked assets, the index is a leading
measure of the Red Chips and H share market. 

    Moreover, the Committee has also approved two additions
and deletions to the FTSE/Xinhua China A50 Index: Shanxi
Taigang Stainless Steel (A share, 000825) and Beijing North
Star (A share, 601588) were added while Tianjin Port (Group)
(A share, 600717) and Shandong Aluminium Industry (A share,
600205) were deleted accordingly. Used by domestic
investors, and the growing QFII community as the basis of
many investment products, the FTSE/Xinhua China A50 index
is a leading measure of the dynamic China A share market. 


    There are also eleven turnovers in FTSE Xinhua China
200 index, and the inclusions include Huadian Power
International (A share, 600027) and Hainan Airlines (A
share, 600221), etc. For details of the changes please
