2.2.9 Private Equity Custom Benchmarks
Please note that this endpoint is in beta stage. Endpoint signature and parameters may change.
Purpose
To generate custom benchmarks based on an existing private equity index, with the option to modify the weightage of constituents by constraints. This function returns the computed index level and total returns in timeseries by default.
The computation may take a little longer if complex constraints are supplied, and/or the benchmark is based on an index containing large number of constituents.
