Index and benchmark products provide standardized measures of market performance. They are constructed using specific rules to represent a particular segment of the financial markets, such as large-cap equities in a specific region or a specific grade of corporate bonds.
These products offer continuous data feeds and historical analytics detailing the composition and daily valuation of the index. They are maintained through regular rebalancing to ensure they accurately reflect their stated methodology as market conditions and asset valuations change. The provider ensures the integrity, transparency, and independent calculation of the benchmark.
Institutional investors use these products for multiple purposes: as a gauge to evaluate the performance of active portfolio managers, as the underlying architecture for passive investment products like index funds, and as critical data inputs for risk management and asset allocation models.
