There are already countless benchmarks and reference values worldwide. Almost all of them are abstract and limited exclusively to economic data. While a few years ago it was sufficient to generate maximum performance for investors, today social and environmental impacts must also be taken into account. It is not only the result that is decisive; cause and effect are increasingly at the centre of investment decisions. This is extremely complex – especially for regulated investors, who in turn must avoid risks as far as possible.
Under the brand name ‘fund2index’, the fund2seed Group will launch a series of indices in the coming months that reduce complexity in order to enable effective action and provide guidance. With the help of multidimensional indices, bond indices, alpha indices and risk-adjusted indices, the philosophy of the fund2seed Group will be consistently implemented.
Sven Ulbrich, founder of the fund2seed Group: ‘Acting sustainably requires continuously reflecting on the intention and impact of one’s own actions. With fund2index, we aggregate abstract and highly complex relationships into a simple number.’
The team of index specialists in Frankfurt has been preparing for the new indices since March 2023. Following the successful completion of the application process and registration with the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), f2index is now recognized as a benchmark administrator.
Christian Schedling, Managing Director of f2index: ‘The registration as a benchmark administrator in accordance with the EU BMR is another important milestone to enable regulated market participants to act effectively. This creates transparency and security for our customers. We are building on a solid foundation of years of experience, including a strong governance structure, and we look forward to contributing to the growth of the group.’
