FTSE publishes comprehensive index rules and calculation methodology to support all indices. They are maintained by FTSE Committees and any changes are widely publicised.

For money management and financial planning, Rule of 72 is a golden rule.
Rule of 72 is the most popular financial method to estimate time required to double an investment at a given interest rate, or halve the savings at a given inflation rate.
- Years to double = 72 divided by Interest Rate (in percentage), e.g. it takes 12 years to double an investment at 6% interest rate.
- Years to halve = 72 divided by Inflation Rate (in percentage), e.g. it takes 12 years to halve an investment at 6% inflation rate.
