Governance

The Indexes are administered by FutureSports under a governance framework designed to align with the IOSCO Principles for Financial Benchmarks and provide transparent, rules-based reference values for benchmarking, valuation, and other lawful reference purposes. Each index family is governed by a published methodology guide. The guide sets out the benchmark objective, constituent definitions, multiplier values, calculation rules, and the Points Attribution Table used to determine index values.
