From concept to live calculation, Alpha Vee delivers a complete end-to-end index solution — the same capabilities offered by the world's largest providers, with the responsiveness, flexibility, and direct partnership model that only a dedicated boutique can provide.
Whether you're launching your first index product or managing a complex multi-index business, Alpha Vee provides every capability institutional providers offer — under one roof, with direct access to the team that builds it.
From universe construction and weighting methodology to rebalancing schedules, corporate action policies, and ESG or thematic screens — every parameter is tailored to your investment thesis. Like S&P DJI's custom team and Solactive's engineering model, we deliver rule-based, fully documented methodology built to meet regulatory and listing requirements.
Our high-performance engine delivers intraday and end-of-day index values with institutional precision — comparable to MSCI's 18,500+ real-time indexes. Automated workflows handle price updates, corporate actions, and rebalancing events with continuous accuracy. iNAV/iOPV calculation for ETFs and structured products is fully supported.
Index values are distributed worldwide through all major financial data infrastructure — Bloomberg, Refinitiv/LSEG, FactSet, S&P Global Market Intelligence, ICE Data Services, and direct API. S&P DJI provides "follow the sun" coverage across seven offices; Alpha Vee delivers your index to the same global screens with dedicated North American support.
Complete IOSCO Principles-aligned governance — the same standard demanded by MSCI, S&P DJI, and global regulators. Full audit trail of index decisions, independent oversight, methodology change management, stakeholder consultation procedures, and EU Benchmark Regulation compliance documentation are all included.
Branded fact sheets, performance reports, regulatory filings, and constituent data files are generated automatically on your defined schedule — a capability BITA calls "regulatory compliant reports at scale." You define content and layout; our platform handles generation and distribution with zero manual intervention.
Validate your index methodology against decades of historical data before going live. Our simulation engine — the same institutional-grade platform behind our own published indexes — delivers full performance attribution, factor exposures, turnover analysis, and drawdown analytics. The rigor institutional investors and ETF listing venues require before launch.
A streamlined process built for speed to market — without compromising rigor or compliance. Solactive pioneered fast-track index delivery; Alpha Vee brings the same philosophy with integrated US market expertise.
Collaborate with our index specialists to define universe construction, weighting methodology, rebalancing frequency, corporate action policies, and any ESG or thematic screens. We build and document a complete methodology ready for regulatory review and exchange submission.
Run historical simulations across your full time series. Review risk/return analytics, factor exposures, and liquidity profiles. Upon approval, we onboard the index to our live calculation infrastructure and configure all dissemination channels — Bloomberg, FactSet, and beyond.
Daily — or intraday — values are calculated, validated, and distributed automatically. Our dedicated team monitors for anomalies, manages corporate actions, executes methodology-driven rebalances, and supports any future enhancements or methodology changes you need.

The world's leading providers set the standard. Alpha Vee delivers every capability they offer — plus what they can't: full integration with your investment strategy, direct developer access, and pricing that doesn't require enterprise-scale AUM to justify.
Large providers like S&P DJI and MSCI carry the overhead of bureaucratic approval processes. Solactive built its business on speed; Alpha Vee matches that velocity with US-market expertise and an integrated platform that accelerates every stage from design to live calculation.
At S&P DJI and MSCI, you communicate through account managers. At Alpha Vee, you work directly with the quantitative analysts and engineers building your index — the same people who designed and operate our own published institutional strategies.
BITA, Solactive, S&P DJI, and MSCI all stop at index delivery. Alpha Vee uniquely combines index development with a full Workstation platform — factor research, backtesting, portfolio optimization, risk monitoring, direct indexing, and client reporting — all in one system. No integrations required.
S&P DJI and MSCI are optimized for trillion-dollar asset managers. Solactive opened the market to mid-tier managers. Alpha Vee goes further — serving emerging RIAs, boutique ETF issuers, wealth platforms, and regional exchanges with the same institutional infrastructure and no enterprise-tier minimum.
Like every leading provider, Alpha Vee clients retain complete ownership of their methodology. But unlike platforms where your data becomes part of a shared infrastructure, Alpha Vee's architecture keeps your index logic, constituent data, and performance history fully isolated and client-controlled.
MSCI trades on the NYSE; S&P Global's index business drives its public earnings. Their roadmaps serve shareholders. Alpha Vee is privately held — decisions are made for clients, not quarterly earnings. Like Solactive and BITA, we build long-term relationships, not short-term contracts.
MSCI runs 18,500+ real-time indexes daily. S&P DJI manages 10,000+ custom calculations with the same infrastructure as the S&P 500. Our engine is built to that same standard — purpose-built for every index structure from simple market-cap benchmarks to complex multi-factor, rules-based strategies.
Global Dissemination Network — Same Reach as the World's Largest Providers
S&P DJI calls out ETF sponsors, derivative desks, financial advisors, self-indexers, structured product teams, exchanges, and plan sponsors as their custom index clients. Alpha Vee serves all of these — with an added focus on emerging and growth-stage firms that the incumbents underserve.
Launch thematic, factor, or custom index-linked products with governance that meets exchange listing and regulatory requirements. Same standard as Solactive's ETF-issuer clients.
Create proprietary benchmarks reflecting your investment philosophy for differentiated marketing, performance attribution, and mandate compliance — the use case MSCI custom indexes serve for the world's largest managers.
Power index-linked derivatives, structured notes, and listed products with real-time index calculation and global distribution, including iNAV for intraday pricing — a core S&P DJI and Cboe offering.
Develop branded house-view benchmarks and model portfolio indexes that anchor client reporting, direct indexing mandates, and investment committee frameworks — fully integrated with the Alpha Vee Workstation.
Build indices underlying capital-protected products, certificates, and notes with full transparency, daily calculation, and the governance documentation required by regulators — comparable to S&P DJI's structured products index services.
Extend your index business by outsourcing calculation and administration to Alpha Vee — retaining full IP ownership while we handle infrastructure, operations, and compliance. The "indexing as a service" model pioneered by BITA, matched here with integrated portfolio capabilities.
Every major index provider — S&P DJI, MSCI, Solactive, BITA — delivers the index. Then your team has to integrate it with separate analytics, portfolio management, and client reporting tools. Alpha Vee eliminates that gap. Your custom index lives inside the same platform you use to research, build, optimize, and report on portfolios.
Alpha Vee delivers every capability that S&P DJI, MSCI, Solactive, and BITA offer — with the directness, flexibility, and integrated platform that established providers simply can't match.
