European Family of Indices and Derivatives
Euronext and Morningstar are working together in the launch of Morningstar European Indices and associated Derivatives instruments, traded on Euronext. The offer is designed to provide product creation opportunities and risk management tools that can help investors access consistent exposure to European markets and manage risk in their portfolios.
Euronext, the leading pan-European exchange offering transparent equity and derivatives markets, and Morningstar, the leading global provider of independent investment research and data provide access to a disruptive business model and a competitive alternative to Europe’s existing Indices offering.
By combining their expertise, Euronext and Morningstar are real game-changers:

The offering includes two new Morningstar Indexes and associated derivative instruments tradable at Euronext. Morningstar’s open index licensing model makes index benchmarking available at no cost and enables parties to create ETFs and ETPs at very low cost. This offering responds to the market’s growing needs for cheaper alternatives, increased transparency within the new MIFID II regulation and heightened competition. In January 2018, Euronext launched futures contracts on the Morningstar Eurozone 50 Index. Futures on the Morningstar Developed Markets 100 Index will follow soon
The indices are built for asset managers, insurance companies, consultants, wealth platforms, advisor networks, discount brokerages, retirement plans providers, sponsors, ETF issuers, banks and trading desks.
- Free equity beta indices when used for benchmarking.
- Free constituent holdings on a monthly basis.
- A competitive licensing fee for investment product creation.
- Aggressively limited fixed fee levels to license the indices to create bank structured products.
