Sort of like a mini-index, only static (but modifiable by agreement). In the context of [[delta-one]] [[equity derivatives]], there’s little difference between a {{eqderivprov|Basket}} and a collection of single {{eqderivprov|Share Swap Transaction}}s on the individual {{eqderivprov|Issuer}}s comprising the basket. You might ask why bother even having them, but if you wanted to trade a fixed block, and keep a single UTI, it might make sense —  for trading a modified version of a public index, for example.
