HKEX Group’s Hang Seng Index (HSI) Futures and Options
Hang Seng Index (HSI) Futures and Options provide investors with effective mechanisms for portfolio risk management and the pursuit of index arbitrage.
The Hang Seng Index (HSI) is calculated by weighting the value of each company's outstanding shares (market capitalization) within the index.

The constituent companies are categorized into four sectors: Commerce and Industry, Finance, Properties, and Utilities.
