## About General Index

General Index is a technology-driven commodity pricing provider and benchmark administrator based in London, UK.

Founded in 2019/2020 by Neil Bradford, the company aims to enhance transparency and fairness in price reporting by utilizing data rather than traditional journalism. It is authorized by the UK Financial Conduct Authority and complies with EU and UK Benchmark Regulations. The company aggregates trade data from over 200 partners to create algorithmically calculated energy benchmarks, producing around 4,000 daily prices across various markets, including crude oil, biofuels, and carbon.

Its solutions are designed for easy integration into modern data infrastructures, making them accessible to clients in the energy and financial sectors, including major corporations like BP, ExxonMobil, and Bloomberg.
