Bloomsbury Publishing was the top gainer on the index. Shares in the Harry Potter publisher surged last week after it upgraded its full-year expectations following record first-half profit and revenue.

TBC Bank was also in the black, having tumbled at the start of the week after the ruling Georgian Dream party, which is aligned with Russia, won a contested election at the weekend.

Close Brothers was also recovering following heavy losses last Friday, when the Court of Appeal ruled in favour of British consumers that motor dealers acting as credit brokers owe a fiduciary duty to their customers.
