S&P Dow Jones and Kaiko Merge Digital Asset Index Products into Co-Branded Series

S&P Dow Jones Indices and Kaiko have announced the integration of their digital asset index products into a co-branded series, S&P Kaiko Digital Asset Indices, effective September 1, 2026. The series combines Kaiko's reference rates and multi-asset indices with S&P DJI's existing crypto indices under the unified S&P Kaiko brand. Powered by Kaiko's data infrastructure and S&P DJI's global distribution and benchmark administration, the series covers over 4,000 rates and indices. Existing financial products using Kaiko benchmarks can adopt the new branding. Kaiko Indices, S.A. will retain its brand and BMR registration. Cameron Drinkwater of S&P DJI highlighted that the integration enhances digital asset benchmark standards with transparency and rigor. Kaiko CEO Ambre Soubiran noted the move provides institutions with credibility and precision.
