Biography

The Live Index Research Desk is the collective byline for work produced jointly by the platform's research, data engineering and editorial functions.

It is used for index releases, dataset documentation and methodology notes where authorship is genuinely institutional rather than individual. Where a single person is responsible for an analytical decision, that person is credited by name instead.
