Additional Information
The S&P/ASX 200 launched on 3 April 2000.
Upon launch, it replaced the All Ordinaries to become Australia's primary investment benchmark and is used as the basis of multiple index products (e.g. VIX and SPI 200 Futures).
The high percentage of market representation gives the index a dual function:
• To provide an accurate benchmark for the stock market as a whole
• Give institutional investors a highly liquid and tradable index
Listed companies place significant importance on their inclusion in the ASX 200 as it generates institutional interest, encourages investment and often entices research by stockbroking firms and analysts.

Historical Return
Since inception, the index has returned 4.02% p.a. excluding dividends and 8.44% including dividends (November 2024).
Accumulation / Total Return
The S&P/ASX 200 Index does not include dividends.
The S&P/ASX 200 Gross Total Return Index (XJT) includes all cash dividends reinvested on the ex-dividend date. It's calculated every minute, unlike the S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index (XJOA) which is end-of-day only. Both are used as a performance benchmark for managed funds and portfolio returns.
The S&P/ASX 200 Net Total Return Index (XNT) includes all cash dividends reinvested on the ex-dividend date after the deduction of a 30% withholding tax (not applied to fully franked dividends).
