Eurekahedge is set to launch a suite of new asset weighted indices, under the name Mizuho-Eurekahedge Index.
In March, Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd. (Mizuho) acquired a 95% stake in Eurekahedge.
This suite of indices follows a rigid methodology that will enable investors to use them for benchmarking their portfolios and building products such as replication indices, passively managed index funds and exchange-traded funds.
The indices will be available in October with September performance numbers and data going back to January 2005.
