2019 1st Quarter RIFC 50 Index™ Report

The franchising sector-focused RIFC 50 Index gained 8.4% in Q1 amidst a broad recovery of the financial markets from the severe correction of the 4th quarter 2018. Developed by Dr. Hachemi “Hach” Aliouche and published by Rosenberg International Franchise Center (RIFC), it is the first stock index to track the financial market performance of the U.S. franchising sector vs the S&P 500. 

“Our RIFC 50 Index quarterly reports offer a succinct look at the best and worst performers from among the 50 franchise businesses in the portfolio, and the business reasons that may have contributed to their rise or fall in the quarterly ranking,” said Aliouche.
