THE RICI® WEIGHTING
The RICI® index is based on 37 commodity futures contracts. Individual components qualify for inclusion in the index on the basis of liquidity and weighting in their respective underlying world¬wide consumption. If a commodity contract trades on more than one exchange, then generally the most liquid, in terms of volume and open interest combined, is selected for inclusion in the index.
Please find below the list of the futures contracts composing the Index together with their respective exchanges and currencies:
