The index system includes two main portfolios with four and seventeen indexes to each portfolio respectively. The four indexes in portfolio one define the evaluated company’s competencies in four aspects – fundamentals, development, profitability and risk-resistance. Justifications concerning the four competencies are derived from collective analysis of the company’s financial performance in 2011 by seventeen indexes in portfolio two. Along with BFA’s in-depth studies on the competitiveness of 37 economies in Asia, over 300 public companies in 41 stock exchanges located in Asia and the Oceana region were included as part of the studies. In addition to combined competitive performance, the report ranks the companies and provides detailed analysis on the top 50 companies based on different areas and industries as well.

ZyXEL ranks as the 24th most competitive public company in combined performance among Asia’s top 300 companies, while it stands 3rd amongst Taiwan companies.
