MF&Co Introduces The RSKFREx™ Index Suite

Rolling Short-Term Key Funding Reference Index & Rate

The RSKFREx™ (Rolling Short-term Key Funding Reference Index) is a fixed income total return benchmarking suite that emulates recurring investment in a prevailing short-term 4-week U.S. Treasury Bill. The suite is comprised of the RSKFREx™ Index and the corresponding RSKFREx™ Rate. Both fluctuate directly with prevailing market rates, are settled daily, and rebalanced monthly to provide a realistic representation of the execution economics from “rolling” 4-week U.S. Treasury Bills, allowing for straightforward, practical, and highly flexible benchmarking of excess returns and/or funding costs.
