Qontigo Launches Two New Thematic Indices On Video Gaming And HealthcareReading Time: 2 minutes

 

Qontigo has expanded its suite of innovative thematic indices by two new concepts: online gaming and the fight against obesity. The STOXX® Video Gaming & eSports Index and the STOXX® Health & Weight Loss Index were introduced today, and financial products based on these indices are expected to launch in the coming weeks.

Both indices are positioned to benefit from structural, global economic growth trends. The STOXX® Video Gaming & eSports Index is comprised of companies focused in the high growth area of video games and eSports. The STOXX® Health & Weight Loss Index includes constituents that are connected to the immediate need of addressing the rising obesity levels in the global population.

“The online gaming and health and weight loss indices are the latest additions to our thematics family that seeks to capture sector-specific, long-term growth. At Qontigo we have advanced thematic investing since 2016 and now offer two dozen theme-based STOXX indices following modern concepts with above-average growth outlooks. Thematic investing aims to capture the momentum of disruptive megatrends that fall into the categories of demographics, climate change and technology. As an investment category, thematic investing has nearly tripled in the three years through December 31, 2019“, said Stephan Flaegel, Global Head of Indices & Benchmarks at Qontigo.

Each index selects constituents from the STOXX® Developed and Emerging Markets Total Market Index, and from certain Chinese markets, with substantial revenue exposure to business sectors associated with the respective concept. The business categories are based on FactSet Revere’s data. Only stocks with a given minimum trading volume are eligible.

Additionally, the two indices will exclude companies that Sustainalytics considers to be non-compliant with the Global Standard Screening and those involved in controversial weapons. This is in line with increasing demand from asset owners and investors to comply with sustainability norms, a drive that has also emerged in thematic strategies.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Rajasthan Youth Board (Youth Affairs & Sports Department, Government of Rajasthan), in collaboration with AA Gaming, has officially announced the Rajasthan State Esports Championship (RSEC) – a landmark state-level initiative poised to engage thousands of players from across the state.
The RSEC 2025 will feature top esports titles including Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), CS2, E-Cricket, and E-Football. Spanning over four stages, the championship aims to reach more than 200 colleges across 41 districts in Rajasthan, making it one of the most comprehensive esports tournaments at the state level in India.
The tournament will unfold in the following stages:
  • Open Qualifiers
  • Inter-College Knockout Rounds
  • Semifinals
  • Grand Finals – which will be live-streamed and culminate in a prestigious awards ceremony.
A core highlight of the RSEC 2025 will be a series of esports workshops, organized by AA Gaming during the inter-college knockout rounds held across Rajasthan. These workshops, in
collaboration with industry experts, are designed to educate and empower participants with essential knowledge and skills, positioning Rajasthan’s youth at the forefront of the rapidly growing esports industry.
Recognized now on global platforms like the Olympic Esports Series, the Asian Games, and the Commonwealth Esports Championship, esports has become a legitimate sporting and medal discipline. With this in mind, the RSEC workshops will cover:
  • Gaming techniques and strategic play
  • Game development fundamentals
  • Esports career pathways
  • Mental health and well-being for athletes
  • Team-building and communication
  • Professional conduct in esports
  • In-depth game analysis and review
Speaking about the RSEC, Dr. Neeraj Kumar Pawan (I.A.S) Chairman, Rajasthan Youth Board & Secretary, Youth Affairs & Sports Department, Government Of Rajasthan, said, “I extend my heartfelt best wishes for the upcoming Rajasthan State Esports Championship. As Rajasthan does not yet have an official esports federation, the Youth Affairs & Sports Department of Rajasthan has taken the initiative to support the esports ecosystem by joining hands with passionate youth, many of whom have come forward through the Youth Board. This championship marks a significant first step in promoting esports across the state, and I wholeheartedly commend the young leaders driving this movement.”
Commenting on the tournament, Akash Dhangar, Founder and CEO of AA Gaming, said:
“We are thrilled to partner with the Rajasthan Youth Board for the Rajasthan State Esports Championship — a one-of-a-kind initiative that not only empowers the youth through competitive esports, but also equips them with the knowledge and skills to thrive in this fast-growing industry. Through our comprehensive workshops, we aim to provide in-depth education on the key pillars of the esports ecosystem, enabling Rajasthan’s youth to emerge as innovators and leaders in the gaming and esports space.”
These sessions aim to develop well-rounded esports professionals — from players aiming for international glory to those exploring careers in game development, casting, management, and more.
The Rajasthan State Esports Championship is a pioneering initiative by the Government of Rajasthan to integrate esports into the mainstream sporting ecosystem and harness the power of gaming to inspire, educate, and uplift the state’s youth.
With RSEC 2025, Rajasthan is set to lead by example, creating a blueprint for how regional governments can support and grow the esports ecosystem from the grassroots.
