About the Company

MerQube

Index provider licensing cloud-based, rules-based indices

MerQube designs and calculates customized rules-based financial and insurance indices using cloud-native technology. Its offerings include thematic, ESG, factor, and retirement-focused indices, created and managed via a scalable platform that institutions license to design and deploy passive investment benchmarks. The product works by letting clients define rules and criteria for an index, with MerQube handling the calculation and maintenance of the index in real time or on a schedule, and licensing the resulting indices for use in investment products. Compared with competitors, MerQube emphasizes a specialized, scalable design-and-calculate platform tailored to financial and insurance needs, enabling highly customizable benchmarks rather than generic index options. Its goal is to support institutions in creating sophisticated, efficient, and trackable benchmarks for passive investing and related strategies, expanding the index-linked investment market.
