FTSE Group confirms today that Bradford & Bingley will leave the FTSE 100 and be replaced by Barratt Developments. Bradford & Bingley leaves the FTSE 100 after rejoining in September.
In the mid cap FTSE 250 index, new listings Sports Direct International and business processing company Xchanging enter, while Domestic & General Group and ITE Group move up from the FTSE SmallCap to the FTSE 250. That means Woolworths Group, Helical Bar, Dunelm Group and Computacenter leave the FTSE 250 and go into the FTSE SmallCap.
Eurotunnel will not move from the FTSE SmallCap to the FTSE 250 as it is to be deleted from the FTSE UK indices before the changes approved at the review are implemented.
