Hang Seng Index unchanged after quarterly review

HONG KONG | Fri Aug 14, 2009 6:28am EDT

HONG KONG Aug 14 (Reuters) - Hong Kong's index compiler said on Friday that there will be no changes to the constituents of the benchmark blue-chip Hang Seng Index .HSI after a quarterly review.

The total number of HSI constituent companies remains at 42, Hang Seng Indexes Company said in a statement.

Chinese battery and electric car maker BYD Co (1211.HK) would be added to the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index .HSCE, increasing the number of constituents to 44, the compiler said.

The stock has risen more than five-fold since September 2008, when billionaire Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway made an investment in the company. (Reporting by Parvathy Ullatil; Editing by Chris Lewis)
