Developed in collaboration with FTSE Russell, the new indices track digital assets across three core investment strategies for investors: Top 20, Infrastructure and Applications.
Hong Kong, January 24 – In a continued effort to equip investors with real-time, relevant data, HashKey Capital and FTSE Russell, an LSEG business, have introduced a suite of digital asset indices designed for investors seeking to add exposure to cryptocurrencies in their investment strategies.
The collaboration leverages HashKey Capital's crypto industry expertise and FTSE Russell’s renowned index management, rigorous vetting and monitoring process; setting standards for asset and exchange inclusion to meet institutional demand for investability and regulatory integrity in this new asset class.
The FTSE Custom Digital Asset Top 20 Index tracks the top 20 crypto assets based on market capitalization. Currently, this marquee index accurately reflects at least 90% of the overall performance of the digital asset market, to give traders a diversified benchmark of digital asset performance.The FTSE Custom Digital Asset Infrastructure Index tracks digital assets that make up the infrastructure layer of the crypto ecosystem. These functionalities typically include smart contract platforms, protocol interoperability, and distributed computation and storage.
The FTSE Custom Digital Asset Application Index tracks digital assets with application functionalities across the digital asset ecosystem. These assets are typically associated with staking instruments and decentralized finance.
What sets these indices apart is their specificity: traders can track not just a single asset but a basket of assets that align with more nuanced investment strategies across different digital asset segments and market capitalizations. With that nuanced perspective, traders can stay close to daily market performance while also maintaining a holistic view of longer-term trends.
The launch of these new indices marks a pivotal moment in the digital asset market, says Mr. Deng Chao, Managing Director, HashKey Capital:
"We have witnessed a significant surge in demand from investors who want to diversify their portfolios beyond the established cryptocurrencies, and our new indices are a testament to our commitment to providing innovative solutions that cater to the evolving needs of our clients, who look to us to navigate and understand the complexities of this robust and thriving asset class.”
The indices will be accessible on the FTSE Russell website starting on January 24, with plans for future availability through data providers such as Bloomberg, Factset, LSEG Data & Analytics, Morningstar and S&P Capital IQ.
Talking about the collaboration with HashKey Capital, Chris Williamson, Head of Asia-Pacific, Index Investments Group, FTSE Russell says:
“We are excited to have collaborated with HashKey Capital in the development of these new custom indices. The indices start with our rigorous vetting and monitoring process, setting standards for asset and exchange inclusion to meet institutional demand for investability and regulatory integrity in this new asset class.”
