Economic Index Associates (EIA) is a privately held developer and licensor of innovative benchmark and investable indexes. EIA has pioneered the concept of economic indexing which involves the academically researched and validated impact of Federal Reserve and central bank policy decisions on asset pricing. Providing its licenses and data subscribers with index data, constituent and IFED rankings data, and a powerful IFED Portfolio Wizard tool to customize and back-test new indexes and investment strategies, the IFED index methodology overcomes many of the deficiencies of smart beta and factor based active strategies that are static in nature and result in being in or out of favor. EIA’s IFED indexes are active strategies and are designed to be replicable, investable, rules-based and transparent.
