Morningstar rebrands CRSP Market Indexes, keeping methodologies intact

Morningstar, Inc. (NASDAQ: MORN) has completed the rebrand of the CRSP Market Indexes to the Morningstar Market Indexes, the company announced in a press release. The name change follows Morningstar's acquisition of CRSP in February 2026.

The indexes underpin more than $3 trillion in investor assets and serve as benchmarks for mutual funds, ETFs, and index futures contracts. Index methodologies remain unchanged, and the company said clients will experience no disruption in service.

Among the renamed indexes is the Morningstar US Total Market Index, previously the CRSP US Total Market Index, which is tracked by the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund (VTSAX) and the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI). The index is described as capturing 100% of the US equity market.

The Morningstar Market Indexes support investment products from asset managers including Vanguard and underpin equity index-based futures contracts launched by CME Group.

"These benchmarks help play an important role in the investment ecosystem and being part of Morningstar creates new opportunities to expand their reach," said Amelia Furr, president of Morningstar Indexes.

According to Burton Taylor International Consulting's most recent annual index industry report, Morningstar Indexes has the highest five-year growth rate among global index providers, as cited in the press release.
