About Liv-ex Indices
Liv-ex indices define the fine wine market: the Liv-ex 100 index, found on Bloomberg terminals, launched in December 2003 and was then backdated to July 2001. In its first two decades, it has increased 272.4%, survived three global financial crises, and returned more than the S&P 500.
All our indices are calculated using the Liv-ex Mid Price. The Mid Price, which is based on merchant transactions, is the most robust measure for pricing wines available in the market. It is calculated by finding the midpoint between the current highest bid price and lowest offer price. These prices are truly independent. They are firm commitments from merchants on Liv-ex; the most liquid fine wine marketplace. Each price is then verified by our valuation committee to ensure that the number is robust after considering all data at our disposal, including merchant offer prices and historical Liv-ex transaction prices.
