Burberry to return to FTSE 100 after a year's absence as overhaul strategy gains pace

British luxury fashion house Burberry

is set to re-join the U.K.’s FTSE 100 later this month, one year after being relegated from the blue-chip benchmark, index provider FTSE Russell said Wednesday.

The upgrade, part of a quarterly reshuffling at the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), takes place as the heritage brand has been regaining traction under a sweeping overhaul by CEO Joshua Schulman.

Burberry shares were down around 1.1% by 8:40 a.m. London time (3:40 a.m. ET).

The luxury group fell out of the FTSE 100 in September 2024, bringing its 15-year run in the U.K. large-cap index to a close.
