dxFeed to Act as Index Calculation Agent for MUSIQ™, the World’s First Benchmarked Financial Index for Song Streaming

New York, United States - 07-22-2022 (PR Distribution™) -

dxFeed, a leading data solutions and index management provider for the global financial industry, both traditional and crypto, has announced becoming the index calculation agent for Clouty. This organization is the first to make music a financial instrument, providing MUSIQ™ 500 Composite, The First Financial Benchmark for Musict. dxFeed has expanded its capabilities beyond creating financial and market data-based indices and created the product designed to serve as the key benchmark for the music industry, opening the door for industry risk management and music as a tradable asset.

The MUSIQ™ 500 Composite is an index that compiles the top 500 songs via raw consumption streaming data in the US and the average price-paid-out per stream to create the index value. This move paves the way to introduce a host of tradable financial products, giving the industry an opportunity for much-needed risk management capabilities. Additionally, this would offer institutional investors as well as the general public a chance to have a financial stake in music.

"The advent of streaming has allowed music to become a tangible asset via real-time data. That's why we needed to partner with the best expertise index management provider. We wanted our partner to be ready to think innovatively and freely, going beyond the limits of the exclusive financial market," said David Umeh, Clouty Founder and CEO. "We're looking forward to sharing several other significant developments in the coming months with dxFeed."

dxFeed applied Clouty’s proprietary methodology to calculate the index value. Individual indexes tracking the top nine genres, along with a global composite, are expected soon after the release of the MUSIQ™ 500.

"This project is special for us as it allows our team to work with the music streaming value as an uncorrelated asset class. This is key when it comes to diversifying an investment portfolio, especially in today's market. With Clouty, we've made that possible by applying robust financial analysis on the data," said Oleg Solodukhin, CEO at dxFeed. "Music has a real value that can be tracked, thanks to the advent of streaming. We've taken a data-driven approach to create a financial instrument for songs and their genres."
