SIPA data and technology originated at EDHEC, a leading academic research centre and business school. SIPA is built upon 10 years of work on private asset pricing, risk factors, and performance measurement.

SIPA Indices & benchmarks are the product of scientific methodologies. Every pricing model is peer-reviewed and published by an international research team. SIPA benchmarks are registered with the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) for use in regulated financial products.

SIPA uses the TICCS® and PECCS®, two classification systems for private assets adopted by leading investors worldwide.
