Indices
AIM has two fully investable indices − the FTSE AIM UK50 and the FTSE AIM100. You can see these indices and their constituents by clicking here.
In May 2006, AIM expanded the choice for AIM investors still further with the launch of the FTSE AIM All-Share Supersector Indices. These provide investors with 18 new sector indices for AIM, which can be used to identify macroeconomic opportunities for investment and to support trading decisions.

Tax breaks
As well as gaining access to the world’s largest and most dynamic collection of smaller growth companies, investors in AIM companies also enjoy attractive tax advantages and the security of a well-regulated and internationally-respected capital market.

Security and safety
Every AIM company is supported, advised and monitored by its own Nominated Adviser (Nomad). Firms that wish to act as Nomads must undergo stringent checks before they can be authorised to become a London Stock Exchange-approved Nomad for AIM. These checks ensure the suitability both of Nomads and of the companies they assist to operate as part of AIM, bringing investors increased certainty and security.
By combining these attributes with the Exchange’s robust and sophisticated trading platforms, AIM gives private and institutional investors alike the reassurance of a secure market that enables them both to support the companies of tomorrow, and also to participate in these companies’ success.
