SINGAPORE & LONDON & SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- Businesswire -- Wilshire, a leading global financial services firm, today launched Wilshire Indexes, a new operating entity that will hold its indexing business and focus on expanding adoption of the FT Wilshire index franchise worldwide. Joining Wilshire in the new venture are the Financial Times (FT) and Singapore Exchange (SGX Group) - strategic partners who will help to grow Wilshire’s index business in North America, Europe and Asia.
The Financial Times is committed to promoting the FT Wilshire indexes to its readership and online subscribers worldwide, providing investment professionals and thought leaders with new insights into drivers of market performance. SGX, a leading international multi asset exchange and derivatives hub in Asia, will collaborate with Wilshire Indexes in the provision of indexing solutions and services for institutional investors and intermediaries around the world.
Wilshire Indexes will operate as an independent and separate entity alongside Wilshire’s core investment management and consulting, OCIO, alternatives and analytics businesses, which will continue to be known as Wilshire and operate unchanged. Mark Makepeace, who has served as Wilshire’s Chief Executive Officer, will serve as CEO of Wilshire Indexes.
Andy Stewart, Wilshire’s Deputy Chief Executive Officer, will serve as CEO of Wilshire and Jason Schwarz will serve as Wilshire’s Deputy CEO in addition to his current role as Wilshire’s President.
There continues to be growing demand for indexes to support investment worldwide. Over the past two years, Wilshire’s index platform has been modernized and the architecture rebuilt on new technology to enable its index business to scale rapidly and meet clients’ evolving index needs.
Mark Makepeace, CEO, Wilshire Indexes, said, “Since 2021, we have successfully transformed Wilshire’s legacy index business into a modern index provider. Now, at a pivotal inflection point, this organizational change and outside capital will allow us to focus on our growth plans. We believe that, with the support of our new investors and shareholders, the newly created subsidiary will become an important player in the industry.”
