Consequences of being added to the ASX 300?

[RamonR]

Are there any consquences of a share moving onto the ASX 300?

I am thinking that maybe some index funds will have to buy, so a positive thing for share price.

Possibly more broker coverage. But ASX100 and ASX200 are more significant imo.

I don't know an index fund that attempts to track the ASX300, although I don't know all the index funds.

Borrow cash at lower rates is usually one perk...

not sure about the 300 though (Pretty sure the 200)

VAS - Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF tracks the S&P/ ASX 300 Index.

Very small Market cap so its not like VAS would have a big impact.

I suppose the best thing about being a part of the ASX300 is that its the usual path
to the ASX 200 noticed my major holding TRY is back in the ASX 300 today.

Interesting. I would really like to have a product called ASX201-300 index fund. I know there are smaller company funds out there, but they don't track anything and fees are expensive.
