f2index GmbH has been registered by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) as an index administrator in accordance with Article 34 of the EU Benchmark Regulation (2016/1011 of 08 June 2016).

There are already countless benchmarks and reference values worldwide. Almost all of them are abstract and limited exclusively to economic data. While a few years ago it was sufficient to generate maximum performance for investors, today social and environmental impacts must be taken into account. It is not only the outcome that is decisive, but increasingly cause and effect are at the heart of investment decisions. Extremely complex – especially for regulated investors, forced to avoid risks.  

Under the "fund2index" brand, the fund2seed Group will be launching a series of indices in the coming months that reduce complexity in order to enable effective action and provide guidance. With the help of multidimensional indices, indices on bonds, alpha and risk-adjusted indices, the philosophy of the fund2seed group is consistently implemented.

Sven Ulbrich, founder of the fund2seed Group: "Acting meaningful requires continuously reflecting on the intention and impact of one's actions. With fund2index we aggregate abstract and very complex relationships in a simple number." 

The team of index specialists in Frankfurt has been preparing for the new indices since March 2023. Following the successful completion of the application process and entry in the register of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), f2index is recognised as a benchmark administrator.

Christian Schedling, Managing Director of f2index: "The registration as a benchmark administrator within the meaning of the EU-BMR is another important milestone in enabling regulated market participants to act in an impact-oriented manner.  This creates transparency and security for our customers. We are building on a solid foundation of years of experience, including a strong governance structure, and look forward to contributing to the growth of the Group."
