CRSP Market Indexes are used by asset owners, fund sponsors and other financial institutions to measure the performance of the overall US equity market and various market segments (market cap, style, sector, ESG).

Currently over $2 trillion of fund assets are linked to CRSP Market Indexes.

Our investable indexes blend advancements in academic research with industry practice under the premise that an index must reflect the way that money managers actually invest.

    CRSP Market Cap indexes are a suite of broad US equity benchmarks that employs CRSP’s proprietary cap-segmentation methodology. To ensure the character of each cap segment is consistent through time, the methodology is based on a percentage-weight of the total US equity market instead of simple fixed constituent counts to represent each capitalization segment. CRSP Market Cap indexes also utilize CRSP’s unique index maintenance tools such as migration packeting, banding and transitional reconstitution to mitigate transaction costs from index changes.

    The CRSP ISS ESG Indexes are a unique, proprietary suite of “paired” indexes employing ESG performance ratings from Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) to separate the CRSP US Large Cap Index universe into “Qualifying” (ESG) and “non-Qualifying” (Remainder) index pairs. Each index pair provides investors with a transparent, distinct, and representative partition of the entire US Large Cap equity market by the ESG rating of each underlying company.
