Index Overview
The Northern Trust High Yield US Corporate Bond Index is designed to measure the performance of a diversified universe of high yield, US dollar denominated corporate bonds issued by companies who are members of the G12 or G10 Currencies. The index is comprised of eligible securities with $150mm or more in outstanding principal, a maturity of one year at the time of each reconstitution (also a final maturity of at least 18 months at the time of issuance), and securities not in defaulted status.
