Frequently asked questions

What is an index?

An index is a statistical measure that represents the value of a group of assets or a segment of a market. It’s often used as a benchmark to track the performance of financial markets, commodities, and various types of costs. Examples include stock market indexes like the S&P 500, commodities indexes that track the price of oil, gold or other resources, and cost indexes that represent wage trends or economic indicators.



How to select indexes?

  1. Identify your needs: Determine what you want to track or analyze. This could be the performance of a particular market, the cost of certain commodities, or economic indicators like inflation or unemployment rates.
  2. Research available indexes: There are countless indexes available, each with its own focus and methodology. Research which indexes align with your needs.
  3. Evaluate index construction: Look at how the index is constructed. What assets does it include? How does it weigh those assets? Understanding the methodology behind an index can give you insight into what it truly represents and whether it aligns with your needs.
  4. Consider historical performance: While past performance is not indicative of future results, it can give you a sense of an index’s volatility and how it has responded to different market conditions.
  5. Seek expert advice: Consulting with a financial advisor or a service like Prognos can help you navigate the vast array of indexes and select the ones that best fit your needs.

Hur skapar Prognos mervÀrde?

Efter att vÄr tidigare leverantör inte justerade sina priser enligt indikationer frÄn Prognos analyser fattade vi beslutet att leta efter en ny leverantör. De nya priserna, efter inköpsprojektet, var exakt i linje med vad Prognos-modellerna föreslog. Detta sparade oss cirka 20% inom denna huvudkategori.
