Trading Central Partners with Solactive to Unveil Regional Quant Indices
Trading Central and Solactive announce the introduction of the Solactive TC Quant Index family, comprising the Solactive TC Quant EU 50 Index, the Solactive TC Quant US 50 Index, and the Solactive TC Quant CA 50 Index. Built on Trading Central’s proprietary TC Quantamental Ratings® (TCQR), the indices provide systematic exposure to 50 high-scoring companies in each region, translating Trading Central’s data-driven research into investable benchmarks.
Trading Central is known for distilling large and complex financial datasets—covering fundamentals, news and sentiment, technicals, and macro inputs—into actionable investor insights. The new index series leverages this capability to deliver diversified, factor-aware equity baskets across Europe, the United States, and Canada.
At the core of each index is the TCQR, a rules-based composite of 20 underlying factors grouped into Value, Growth, Quality, Momentum, and Income. Factor group weights are set at 25% each for Value, Growth, and Quality, and 12.5% each for Momentum and Income. Factors are computed within country-by-industry cohorts, and securities are ranked on a 0–100 TCQR scale; the top 50 qualify, subject to a maximum of 17 constituents per sector to promote diversification. Constituents are equally weighted and the indices rebalance monthly.
Timo Pfeiffer, Chief Markets Officer at Solactive, commented: “We are pleased to partner with Trading Central to craft an index series around their proprietary TC Quantamental Ratings® (TCQR). This launch once again brings together high-IP research and customized index solutions to support innovative financial products.”
“The launch of our TC Quant Indices reinforces Trading Central’s commitment to empowering investors and brokers through our trusted financial intelligence and technology,” said Alain Pellier, CEO of Trading Central. “By integrating our proven Quantamental Ratings® with rigorous index design, we’re equipping issuers and distributors with distinctive benchmarks that inspire innovative financial products, strengthen client engagement, and deliver data-driven insights for more confident investment decisions.”
