New Partnership

CF Benchmarks is excited to announce the launch of a partnership with Crypto Insights Group Corp., (CIG) the unique digital assets-focused data, analytics, and market intelligence platform for institutional allocators, investment managers, and capital markets services providers.

Starting with our CF Institutional Digital Asset Index (IDAX) and CF Large Cap Index, CIG has begun to roll-out access to CFB’s key measures of investible crypto market beta to users of its platform.

CF Institutional Digital Asset Index (IDAX)

Crypto Insights Group is providing its clients with access to the CF Institutional Digital Asset Index - US - Settlement Price variant.

The CF Institutional Digital Asset Index (IDAX) is a liquid investible benchmark portfolio index designed to track the performance of a portfolio of the largest digital assets recognized as being in regulatory conformance with major financial jurisdictions.

Currently, IDAX is constituted of Bitcoin and Ether. Constituents are weighted by free float market capitalization, and the index is reconstituted and rebalanced quarterly.

The CF Institutional Digital Asset Index - US - Settlement Price variant is calculated and published once a day, every day of the year. It references the price of the portfolio at the time synchronized with the traditional U.S. market closing time of 4:00 pm New York Time.

CF Large Cap Index

Crypto Insights Group is also rolling out access to the CF Large Cap (Diversified Weight) - US - Settlement Price variant for its clients.

Like IDAX, the CF Large Cap is also a liquid, investible benchmark portfolio, though its methodology is carefully designed to ensure it tracks the performance of a broader range of large-cap digital assets. This U.S. dollar-denominated measure aims to capture 95% of the total market capitalization of the investible digital asset universe. Constituents are weighted by free-float market capitalization, and reconstitution and rebalancing occur on a quarterly basis.

The CF Large Cap (Diversified Weight) - US - Settlement Price references the portfolio at the traditional market closing time of the U.S. market: 4:00 pm New York Time.
