Index Development

Our extensive research capabilities across asset classes, team of seasoned experts, innovative thinking and access to quality data help us design unique and innovative investable indexing solutions in a cost effective, timely manner.

Our Index Development services can be segmented into two different areas:

1. Index Licensing
2. Custom Indexing

Index Licensing
Custom Indexing

Indxx-branded indices that our research team builds wholly on their own, or where they perform the majority of the index research and development work. The development of these indices follows a rigorous, proprietary approach that allows our team to identify and then effectively target unique opportunities via an index-based approach.

These completed indices are then offered out to our clients for licensing and currently serve as the benchmarks for numerous passive vehicles globally.

Indxx is a leader in building custom indices for clients upon request. Whether a client has only a general idea of the exposure they would like to access via an index, or a very clear view, our index development team will perform all the research and analysis required to develop a custom index for our clients that best suit their needs and have the greatest likelihood of success.

Some of the services we offer as part of this service include:
