Indexes Governance type
DiversiFi hosts multiple types of indexes.
Each index is classified based on how it is created, governed, and maintained.
This ensures users can clearly understand the nature of each index before interacting with it.
Index Categories
All indexes on the platform belong to one of the following categories:
Core Indexes
Partner Indexes (coming soon)
Creator Indexes (coming soon)
Labs (Experimental) Indexes (coming soon)
Each category reflects differences in origin, control, and intended lifecycle.
Governance & Change Management
Each index category follows a defined governance model that specifies how changes can occur, who can initiate them, and how they are communicated.
Across all index types:
Structural changes are logged
Responsibility is explicitly attributed
No governance action is driven by performance or outcomes
Governance exists to manage structure, not to influence results.
It applies strictly to structural changes.
Index Classification Process
Each index is evaluated using the same process:
Origin – Who defines the index rules
Control – Who controls allocation and changes
Governance – How decisions are made
Lifecycle – Whether the structure is stable or experimental
The index is classified into the category it fully satisfies.
Indexes that do not clearly meet the criteria of a category are classified as Labs by default.
Index Reclassification
An index may be reclassified only if its structure changes, including:
Ownership or control changes
Governance responsibility changes
The nature of the index shifts (e.g. from experimental to fixed)
Reclassification is not triggered by:
Performance
Usage levels
Market conditions
What This Means for Users
Index categories describe how an index is structured, not how it is expected to perform
Users can distinguish between platform-defined, partner-created, creator-driven, and experimental indexes
All indexes follow transparent, predefined classification rules
DiversiFi focuses on making index structure explicit, allowing users to interpret and use indexes according to their own decisions. DiversiFi does not provide financial advices.
