Risk-structured Crypto Indexes

ARIA introduces a new risk-based narrative to the crypto index market.
We design and power institutional-grade crypto indices by embedding objective risk intelligence into index construction. Our indices enable ETF issuers, asset managers, and exchanges to launch structured crypto products with confidence.

Bringing discipline to a volatile market.

ARIA's crypto index solutions combine quantitative risk ratings with transparent construction methodologies to create indices suitable for institutional investment products.
We help clients launch smarter baskets of digital assets—optimised not just for exposure, but for quality, risk balance, and compliance.

These indices can power:
Exchange-Traded Products (ETFs, ETPs)
Benchmark portfolios for funds
Crypto Tradable Indices (CTIs) on centralized or decentralized exchanges

In all cases, our clients are the product issuers—we serve as the risk intelligence partner, index designer, and/or calculation agent behind the scenes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can we use ARIA's ratings to build our own index, or do you have to design it for us?

Yes, absolutely. We offer both models. You can license ARIA's risk ratings and asset classification data to design your own index internally, or we can engineer and calculate the index for you as a full-service partner.

Are ARIA indices eligible for regulated financial products (ETFs, ETPs)?

Yes. Our methodologies are designed with regulatory alignment in mind. We work closely with clients to ensure that asset eligibility, governance, and data transparency meet the requirements of ETF issuers and financial authorities.

How are ARIA indices delivered and maintained?

Indices are delivered via API, CSV, or through the ARIA Institutional Terminal. We provide full access to index performance, composition, and methodology updates, with audit-ready documentation and rebalance notices.

What is involved in ARIA acting as the index calculation agent?

As a calculation agent, ARIA manages the operational lifecycle of the index—including daily price calculation, rebalancing schedules, constituent updates, and methodology governance. We ensure full transparency, version control, and documentation.

What kind of weighting methodologies do you support?

We support market-cap, equal-weight, and custom weighting schemes—including risk-weighted models using ARIA's proprietary risk scores. You can define your own weighting logic or collaborate with us on methodology development.
