New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - March 2, 2026) - VettaFi (a subsidiary of TMX Group), a differentiated index provider with modern distribution solutions, announced today the acquisition and comprehensive rebranding of the Global Listed Infrastructure Organisation ('GLIO') family of indices from FT Wilshire.
"This acquisition marks a significant expansion of VettaFi's index capabilities and underscores its commitment to providing institutional-grade benchmarks for the global investment community," said Brian Coco, Chief Product Officer.
The GLIO indices, known for their rigorous methodology and focus on listed infrastructure and real assets, will be integrated into VettaFi's existing suite and rebranded to the following:
- GLIO VettaFi Global Listed Infrastructure Index
- GLIO VettaFi Global Real Assets Index
Fraser Hughes, the Founder and Chief Executive of the GLIO, noted, "Our transition from FT Wilshire to VettaFi marks a key milestone in GLIO's evolution. By combining our listed infrastructure expertise with VettaFi's global platform, technology, and distribution, we are enhancing the visibility and accessibility of GLIO indices while strengthening the foundation for innovation, broader market access, and continued growth in listed infrastructure and real assets investment."
"Investors continue to search for uncorrelated investment opportunities and, in many cases, alternatives to the typical universe of alternative investments," added Coco.
