"FT & FTSE indices" "The UK’s first stockmarket index comprised 30 leading shares and was published by the Financial News. It became the FT 30-Share Index when the paper merged with the Financial Times in 1935, and was renamed the Financial Times Ordinary Share Index in 1984, the same year the Financial Times-Stock Exchange (FTSE) 100 Share Index was introduced to fill the need for a constantly updated index. The more broadly based FT-Actuaries All-Share Index that had been introduced in 1962 was updated only once an hour. In 1992, the FT, the Stock Exchange and the actuarial profession brought most of their indices together into the FTSE Actuaries series. These are calculated by FTSE International, a company jointly owned by the Financial Times and the Stock Exchange. Futher information about the FTSE indices is available here." ...
