Internal Oversight

CoinAPI maintains rigorous internal oversight processes to ensure the quality and integrity of our index administration:

  1. Compliance Framework: A comprehensive compliance framework oversees all aspects of index administration, ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements and industry best practices.

  2. Audit Trail: All index-related decisions, calculations, and changes are logged in a secure, immutable audit trail.

  3. Conflict of Interest Management: Strict policies are in place to identify, disclose, and manage potential conflicts of interest. These include:

    • Clear separation of index administration from other business functions
    • Restrictions on employee trading in index constituents
    • Disclosure requirements for committee members

  4. Data Quality Controls: Automated systems and manual checks are employed to ensure the accuracy and reliability of input data and index calculations.

  5. Business Continuity: Robust business continuity and disaster recovery plans are in place to ensure uninterrupted index calculation and dissemination.

  6. Training: Regular training programs ensure that all staff involved in index administration are aware of their responsibilities and the latest industry standards.

  7. External Audits: Periodic external audits are conducted to provide independent assurance of our index administration processes.

  8. Regulatory Compliance: We maintain open communication with relevant regulatory bodies and strive to adhere to evolving regulatory standards for index administration.

This governance structure is designed to ensure that CoinAPI Indexes remain reliable, transparent, and resistant to manipulation, thereby maintaining the trust of our stakeholders and the broader financial community. The structure is subject to ongoing review and may be updated to reflect evolving best practices and regulatory requirements.
