In 1982 the FTSE 100 was introduced, representing about 80 percent of the London Stock Exchange's value. In 1995 FTSE Group was made an independent company. The first of several overseas offices was opened inNew York City in 1999,Paris in early 2000, andHong Kong ,Frankfurt , andSan Francisco in 2001.Madrid was opened 2002, andTokyo in 2003.Other Indices
