From looking at the S&P site, accessed via ASX indices, adjustments are quarterly, but based on past 6 months of data. On the face of it, PIH will still then carry forward the BBI market cap history. Not sure if they use discretion given major recapitalisation. Also, not sure what view they will take on the float...do they adjust for 40% shareholders? Thus, it may take two or three quarters for PIH to work its way up the indices.
"The Index Committee reviews constituents quarterly to
ensure adequate market capitalization and liquidity. Both
market capitalization and liquidity are assessed using
the previous six months’ worth of data. Quarterly review
changes take effect the third Friday of December, March,
June, and September. The weighting of constituents in
the S&P/ASX 200 is determined by the float-adjusted market capitalization assigned to each security by the Index Committee. Every index constituents’ fl oat adjustment is reviewed as part of the March quarterly review.
CRITERIA FOR INDEX ADDITIONS
