Effect of Index Concentration on Index Volatility and Performance

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Financial Markets, 2022
The presented study investigated the effect of index concentration on component security and index variances to explore the possibility of concentration risk and its impact on index performance in different markets. The study also investigated the 1/n index with the market cap index to find possible concentration costs for the investors.

A New Industry Concentration Index [PDF]

open access: yesEconomic Papers, 2015
We propose and analyse a new concentration index alternative to the Herfindahl‐Hirschman Index (HHI). This new index emphasises the concept of competitive balance. It is designed to preserve the convexity property of the HHI when a merger involves one of the m largest firms, but to decrease and thus to indicate an increase in competition when a merger ...

On the interpretation of a concentration index of inequality

Health Economics (United Kingdom), 2004
AbstractThis paper aims to add a more intuitive understanding to the concept of a concentration index for measuring relative inequality with an application of health‐related measures by income. A new redistribution interpretation and an existing redistribution interpretation of the Gini are presented and applied to the concentration index.

The Gini Concentration Index for the Study of Survival

2021
This chapter examines some developments that have occurred mostly over the past 20 years in the use of the Gini concentration index to study survival distributions. Most research on the Gini index estimation has focused on completely observed data. The Stata package Giniinc allows one to estimate the Gini concentration index under several conditions ...

A note on the decomposition of the health concentration index

Health Economics, 2002
AbstractIn recent work, the concentration index has been widely used as a measure of income‐related health inequality. The purpose of this note is to illustrate two different methods for decomposing the overall health concentration index using data collected from a Short Form (SF‐36) survey of the general Australian population conducted in 1995.

Refractive index of solutions at high concentrations

Applied Optics, 1988
The refractive index of liquid solutions at the He-Ne laser wavelength, 0.6328 microm, is presented. The measurements were carried out using the conventional minimum deviation method of an equilateral hollow glass prism. The refractive indices of sucrose, sodium chloride, glucose, and caster sugar solutions for a range of density varying from distilled
