Example of historical Index constituent retrieval

Could anyone please provide an example of how you would go about retrieving the index constituents for say the FTSE100 from 10 years ago?

Thank you kindly!

  • @armandnaude I am afraid this is not quite possible, I do not believe we carry FTSE100 constituents from 10 years ago, however, as I said in this reply, your Thomson Reuters support desk should confirm this.

    I was able to go to May 2016 with

    =TR(".FTSE","TR.IndexConstituentRIC;TR.IndexConstituentName;TR.IndexConstituentWeightPercent(S=V)","SDate=20160501 CH=Fd RH=IN")

    If that is fine, I can provide you with a code sample.
