RTW Biotech Opportunities Ltd

Inclusion in FTSE All-Share Index

 

RTW Biotech Opportunities Ltd ("RTW Bio"), the London Stock Exchange-listed
investment company focused on identifying transformative assets with high
growth potential across the life sciences sector, is pleased to note the
announcement that, following the latest quarterly review of the FTSE UK Index
Series, its Ordinary Shares would be included in the FTSE All-Share Index.
This will be effective at the opening of trading on 22 September 2025.

 

Commenting on this development, William Simpson, Chairman of RTW Bio, said:

 

"Earlier in the year, FTSE Russell announced that securities trading in
non-GBP currencies would be eligible for index inclusion following the
September quarterly review. We are delighted that RTW Bio's Ordinary Shares
will shortly be included in the FTSE All-Share Index, which is likely to
enhance our exposure to investors, develop greater UK and international
investor awareness of RTW Bio, and provide increased long-term access to
capital."
