NEW YORK, September 10, 2026: S&P Dow Jones Indices ("S&P DJI"), the world’s leading index provider, announced today that it has completed its thirteenth annual review of its adherence to the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks.

It reinforces the strong controls that safeguard the independence of our index governance and the integrity of our market-leading benchmarks. As a global organization and the provider of iconic indices such as the S&P 500, we remain committed to the highest standards of trust, integrity and accountability while continuing to deliver innovative benchmarking solutions for our clients,” said Cathy Clay, CEO of S&P Dow Jones Indices.
